@catalistmedia.my: What many Malaysians assume is an imported Middle Eastern brand is actually a homegrown success story. Mahnaz Food was founded by the Hashemi family, who established their manufacturing business in Shah Alam in 1996. Seeing the lack of a reliable supply chain for premium dates, nuts, dried fruits, and Persian products, they built one from the ground up—sourcing directly from countries including Iran, Turkey, Brazil, and the United States, while handling roasting, processing, storage, and distribution in Malaysia. Today, Mahnaz Food operates 23 outlets across major malls including Suria KLCC, Pavilion KL, Mid Valley Megamall, Sunway Pyramid, and 1 Utama, offering more than 1,200 premium products to over 85,000 customers and 3,500 wholesalers nationwide. From a single factory in Shah Alam to one of Southeast Asia’s leading premium Middle Eastern food retailers, Mahnaz Food shows how Malaysia has become a regional hub for global food brands. #Malaysia #MahnazFood #ShahAlam #Retail #FoodBusiness
