Responsible Marketing and Labelling
Ajinomoto (Malaysia) Berhad is responsible for conducting marketing and advertising activities ethically and to the highest standards, by providing accurate and balanced information about our brands and products on the food labels. We adhere to the Malaysian Code of Advertising Practice, the Malaysian Food Regulations and the regulations of our international customers.
We are pleased to disclose zero incidents of non-compliance regarding the labelling and marketing of our products.
Putting Our Customers' Satisfaction First
Our engagement approach includes online survey forms to identify current customer perceptions and monitor potential issues relating to our products. We have also put in place our GRASP (annual tracking on usage, attitudes and evaluation of communications regarding MSG and Ajinomoto products) and CONTRAST (Consumer trend research) initiatives.
Celebrating Food Safety Day Through Engagement and Awareness
In conjunction with Food Safety Day, Ajinomoto (Malaysia) Berhad successfully held its Quality & Food Safety Day to strengthen awareness of Quality and Food Safety through interactive game-based activities covering topics such as Food Fraud, Food Allergens, the Temperature Danger Zone and Food Safety Hazards.
In collaboration with the Ministry of Health (MOH), a Food Safety Booth also provided interactive games and knowledge-sharing sessions for employees and the public.
Through these initiatives, we brought food safety awareness beyond the workplace, encouraging meaningful engagement and reinforcing our shared responsibility towards safe food.
