Today, Eucapro is among one of the largest companies to carry mainly Eucalyptus-based products in Malaysia and their products are distributed in high-end grocery stores, pharmacies, and local retail stores and are exported across South East Asia including Singapore, Philippines, Vietnam, and Brunei.

This distilled oil derived from eucalyptus trees has many benefits that include antibacterial and antiviral properties, consisting of medicinal values that are suitable to relieve any discomfort, especially stomach aches.

But what sets Eucapro apart from its competitor is that their eucalyptus leaves are imported directly from Australia and each leaf have gone through multiple testing and it is proven to be effective against harmful bacteria such as the coronavirus, hand-foot-mouth disease, and H1N1.

Alson’s love for coffee started back in 2017 with his dad when his love for modern coffee techniques was met with his dad’s love for traditional drip coffee. This father-son duo’s deep passion in coffee had paved the way to shock others with their tasty “made-with-love” coffee. One of the few that was mesmerized was Bjorn Gan. After tasting Alson’s coffee, Bjorn needed the whole of Malaysia to know how good this coffee is, and he needed Malaysia to have a taste of Astep fast!

Astep started their operations selling on Lazada during the pandemic, a feat not many will take. Their participation in Lazada campaigns like 11.11 mega campaign had truly helped them boost their sales. They leveraged on seller tools such as LazBonus, Flexi Combo, and Free Shipping Max to give their customers the best deals as an incentive to their wide customer base all over Malaysia. To attract more new customers, they also offer free gifts, such as trial packets.

Today, they have a team of 6 staff to fulfill customers’ orders, roasting up to 1 ton of coffee beans a month with a café, a roasting factory and a coffee farm under their name! Not only that, Lazada has also named Bjorn Gan as one of our Lazada Certified Trainer for other sellers to follow on his step-by-step guide in becoming a successful Lazada seller!

After a period of six months and receiving constructive criticism, they rebranded their peanut butter from its original name, ‘Walao-Eh!!! Peanut Butter,’ to Jobbie Nut Butter. They started supplying cafes, restaurants, and other retail outlets.

Initially operating from their rented house, Joseph and Debbie handled everything from product development to sales. They relied on a part-timer during weekends. However, their first year was not profitable. They faced financial difficulties to the point of sharing a bowl of pan mee to survive. 

Selling only a few bottles in the beginning, their hard work and dedication paid off as they now sell thousands of bottles monthly.
