Assalamualaikum and hi!
Yesterday, I was so honoured to be part of the prestigious celebration of Kewpie's 100th Anniversary.
Located at SEGi University, Kota Damansara, Kewpie Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (“Kewpie Malaysia”), a household name synonymous with premium mayonnaise and dressings, celebrated their 100th Anniversary of Kewpie Mayonnaise, marking a century of flavour innovation, culinary inspiration, and trusted quality.
The celebration marks a century of innovation and flavour from the Japanese-born brand, and signals its commitment to nurturing local talent and culinary creativity in Malaysia. To commemorate this historic milestone, Kewpie is launching a wide-reaching celebration that blends global festivities, local partnerships, and a golden opportunity for Malaysians to win a dream holiday to Japan.
First introduced in Japan in 1925 by founder Toichiro Nakashima, Kewpie Mayonnaise was born with a mission to improve nutrition and promote healthier eating. Having been in Malaysia since 2009, Kewpie continues to build on its legacy with a strong local presence and commitment to the halal-certified market.
