Our Story
The Founding Stage
1993 - 1996Start Up
Myxo is founded on year 1993 by Mr. YM Tan and Mdm. SH Heng when they realised there was a huge potential for Thai food products here in Sabah. Their initial intentions was to provide more affordable and wider selection of food products to the local community.
Our beginning was humble and our premise was located at a rented shop-lot. Our early products include onions, maize, cooking salt, cooking oils, dried foods and beans.
The Early Stage
1996 - 2000Building Up
During the early stage, our business grew slowly from one shop-lot to three shop-lots and soon they realised potential of importing China products as Thai products became less competitive.
Also during that early stages, majority of the China products were still imported through Singapore and only a small portion of those products were directly procured from China.
In 1998, due to the continuous expansion of our business, we added two additional 7000 sq.ft warehouses to cater the growth of our business.
The Mature Stage
2001 - 2010Maturing
In 2003, our business flourished and expended further, we moved to a 40,000 sq.ft detached warehouse. We were selling products from all around the world and majority of our China products were imported directly from China. By doing so, we were capable of providing wide variety of products with competitive pricing to the market.
The Advance Stage
2011 - NowPresent
