UEM Edgenta Champions Malaysia’s First Pet Food Rescue

Sharing his thoughts on the initiative, Syahrunizam Samsudin, MD/CEO, UEM Edgenta, emphasised “At UEM Edgenta, sustainability is not just a business objective; it is an integral part of our commitment to creating lasting value for the communities we serve. The ‘Saving Animals, Serving Community’ campaign, in partnership with The Lost Food Project, exemplifies this commitment by addressing the critical issue of pet food waste while enhancing animal welfare across Malaysia. As the only corporate partner of this groundbreaking initiative, we are proud to be at the forefront, which aligns with our broader vision of driving innovation and fostering social responsibility. As we continue to scale this effort, we remain dedicated to building meaningful, sustainable partnerships that make a tangible difference in society.”

In addition to this initiative, UEM Edgenta proudly served as the main sponsor of the “Potong Royong” programme, in collaboration with Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA). This vital campaign successfully neutered 680 animals, including over 500 cats and 150 dogs, helping to manage the stray animal population and promote responsible pet ownership. SPCA has been UEM Edgenta’s trusted partner since 2023. Through the Company’s continued sponsorship in 2024, this collaboration further underscores the UEM Edgenta’s enduring commitment to both animal welfare and community sustainability. Building on the success of these initiatives, UEM Edgenta will continue to strengthen its collaboration with other like-minded organisations. The Company is dedicated to expanding its efforts in reducing pet food waste, enhancing animal welfare, and driving sustainable, community-focused solutions across Malaysia.
