We at Gardenia Bakeries (KL) Sdn. Bhd. [GBKL] would like to pre-emptively clarify that, Kim Teck Cheong Consolidated Bhd. [KTC] obtained the exclusive rights to use Gardenia trademark from Tong Hing Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (a company in Sabah) and this has no association with GBKL at all.

Therefore, KTC and/or its subsidiaries Gardenia Bakeries (East Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. have the rights to the use of Gardenia logo and trademark in Sabah, Sarawak and Indonesia.

GBKL operates only in Peninsular Malaysia. GBKL is completely a different company and is NOT related to KTC and Gardenia Bakeries (East Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. We have different products, different management, different policies and different operational systems.

GBKL would like to assure all our consumers in Peninsular Malaysia that it has always been Gardenia’s policy to serve our customers to the best of our ability in terms of quality of products and services. We have grown practicing this policy faithfully and will continue to do so.

The Truth : The above posting is a re-circulated rumour that is introduced once again in the internet and multiple messaging platforms by irresponsible parties with ulterior motives. We would like to reinstate once again that this news is FAKE!. It was never true, be it back in 2011 or now.

This news was a part of a series of rumours that were fabricated to urge Malaysians to boycott Gardenia that were fueled based on the emotional uncertainties felt based a large pocket of the nation.

We urge all netizens to stop, think and do the rightful. Do not be manipulated and puppeted into supporting parties with their own hidden agenda.

We would really appreciate it if you would forward this to the person that sent this message to you. However, please refer to the following links for more details or do feel free to contact our toll free line at 1-800-88-3228 and speak to our customer service officers for more information on the matter.

It was brought to our attention that Gardenia Food Industries [Gardenia Sabah] operations have been allegedly shut down by the relevant authorities in Sabah.

We at Gardenia Bakeries (KL) Sdn Bhd [GBKL] would like to pre-emptively clarify that GBKL and Gardenia Sabah are two completely different companies, and they are not related. GBKL operates only in Peninsular Malaysia and supplies to this market only. Gardenia Sabah covers that market specifically. The two companies have totally different management, different policies and different operational systems.

GBKL would like to assure all our loyal consumers in Peninsular Malaysia that it has always been our policy and belief to give the best of our ability in terms of products and services. We would also like to take this opportunity, to invite the public to come and see our operations with your own eyes. For any further information/ reservations, please contact us at 1-800-88-3228 or email to customer_service@gardenia.com.my.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to clarify in regards of the prices of Gardenia products.

We would like to take this opportunity to explain to the customer that the overall cost of the Gardenia products consists of not only distribution cost, but a large portion of our production cost is made up of raw material, operating, labour, utility and other related costs.

With this, the impact of the dip in petrol prices in January 2015 is incomparable to the increased in raw material costs due to the increase incurred in foreign exchange, salary increases, the rising cost of utilities (as the rate remains as per previous increase) and so on.

Therefore, it saddens us to inform that we are forced to maintain the price of our products at this time. For any further information, please contact us at 1-800-88-3228 or email to customer_service@gardenia.com.my.

In the light of the recent news about the botulism contamination of milk from New Zealand, we would like to assure our consumers that Gardenia products are not affected in any way.

Gardenia wishes to confirm that the milk used in all our products are originated from Europe (France, Germany & Belgium).

If you have further inquiries, please feel free to call us on our toll-free line at 1-800-88-3228 or e-mail us at customer_service@gardenia.com.my
