THROUGH THICK AND THIN

New Star Food industries Sdn Bhd. is now managed by the second generation of the business. In the late sixties, the founder Mr Lai Hang Keong kicked started the snacks business as a small trader in order to make a living and support the family. He made homemade snacks and delivered them to schools and sold them to young kids. As the family was poor and needed to be thrifty, all members, including the old and young ones were involved in making of the snacks. Mr Lai Hang Keong's children who now run the business, were involved in the making of the snacks since childhood. Sacrificing their play time to help their parents to make snacks after school was those good old memories which they learnt to find joy despite difficult times. These become the foundation of the company business concept which focus on family and the development of life.
