In the exclusive email interview, Ho said that Giant would continuously invest in its logistics and supply chain management in line with its philosophy of growing with its business partners and promoting the development of the retail industry.

“One such strategic plan is the RM260 million state of- the-art distribution centre (DC) in Sepang, Selangor,” he revealed adding that the DC would help reduce logistics costs for its suppliers and reflected its commitment to continue to invest and help the retail sector grow.
GCH Retail, which has a 22 per cent share of the country’s modern retail trade market plans to add two satellite DCs and one fresh food DC at strategic locations this year, with estimated investment amounting to RM260 million.
