A little delight could go a long way at Lotus’s Malaysia

By Ahmed Wafi

An exciting career opportunity awaits you at the hottest retail chain in town.

The hottest and most exciting market retail chain in town is painting Malaysia bright green and yellow. The best part? They’re looking for energetic talent who want to advance their careers to join them – that’s right, you could be part of their growing team of dynamic and diverse individuals!

Never heard of Lotus’s? Odds are you might have driven by one of their stores in the past few weeks without even noticing! Having officially acquired all stores previously owned by Tesco, Lotus’s Malaysia has now assumed the operations of all existing Tesco stores, employing over 8,600 employees across one head office, two distribution centres, and 62 stores throughout Peninsular Malaysia.

It also has Malaysia’s most extensive online grocery home shopping network with over 100 delivery trucks and operations in Penang, Johor Bahru, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, and Ipoh.

While most of its stores still sport the old blue and red of their previous tenants, the retail chain headed by the Charoen Pokphand Group Co., Ltd (C.P. Group) vows to have all 62 stores across the country painted in their patented bright green and yellow by year end.

"The transformation goes beyond just a change of look but focuses on creating smart living experiences that delight one's heart every day," Lotus’s Malaysia President Kenneth Chua said during Lotus’s HQ Branch launching in Kepong.

Now, we know what you’re thinking but no, Lotus’s is not a typo. As seen in their logo, the apostrophe is in fact a drop pin because they want to be the destination for customers’ needs day in, day out.
