Malaysia Ice Cream Market Trends:

E-commerce Growth

The sudden growth in e-commerce has had a major influence on the ice cream market of Malaysia, especially with the emergence of online ice cream delivery and subscription-based platforms. According to the data published by Ministry of Communications, in 2021, Malaysia's e-commerce revenue exceeded RM1 Trillion and is projected to hit RM1.65 Trillion by 2025. The National E-commerce Strategic Roadmap is facilitating this expansion by assisting 500,000 businesses, which includes 157,566 women entrepreneurs, and supporting 85 million transactions valued at RM4.6 billion. With consumers giving more importance to convenience, several ice cream brands are using e-commerce platforms to provide direct-to-consumer offerings. Platforms on the internet make it easy for customers to order their beloved ice cream from the comfort of their own homes, with delivery operators providing timely and convenient access to many flavors. Subscription services are also becoming increasingly popular, where customers can subscribe to regular deliveries of ice cream, frequently with special or seasonal flavors. Such a model creates customer loyalty and inspires repeat buying, leading to the development of niche and artisanal ice cream companies. As smartphone penetration becomes increasingly high and home delivery becomes the preferred mode of delivery, e-commerce is transforming the experience of ice cream among consumers. With the market increasingly turning toward online platforms, e-commerce expansion is set to be one of the major forces driving Malaysia's ice cream market growth in future.

Brand Innovation

Brand innovation plays a pivotal role in driving the Malaysia ice cream market growth. To cater to diverse consumer preferences and stay ahead of the competition, ice cream brands are continuously launching new products and collaborating with well-known food brands. These collaborations offer unique and exciting flavor combinations that appeal to a broader audience. For instance, in August 2024, Inside Scoop celebrated National Day by launching its “Lokal Legends” ice cream range, featuring collaborations with Beryl’s, Secret Recipe, and Farm Fresh. The limited-edition flavors, inspired by popular local treats, include Choco Malt, Chocolate Indulgence, and Tiramisu Almond Chocolate. Such collaborations attract consumers with new, exclusive flavors while enhancig brand visibility. These innovative product launches, often tied to local culture, create a buzz and contribute to a deeper connection with the market, driving growth in the Malaysia ice cream market.
