Trade INTRODUCTION
The Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) is responsible for processing and issuing Malaysian Goods Logo Marking Approval certificates to business entities after meeting the prescribed requirements..
BACKGROUND
KPDN has implemented the rating of locally produced goods through the Made in Malaysia Logo Marking since 1997 to give recognition to manufacturers and producers of local products and dignify Malaysian products/goods. Through this initiative, consumers can identify local products when making purchases while instilling a sense of patriotism among Malaysians. This initiative indirectly encourages the people to prioritize local goods and can help promote locally produced goods for domestic and foreign markets as well as stimulate the economy and development of the local industry.
LOGO CATEGORY
MALAYSIAN PRODUCT
- Goods produced through manufacturing/processing activities in Malaysia and containing a minimum of 40% local raw materials.
MADE IN MALAYSIA
- Goods produced through manufacturing/processing activities in Malaysia and involving substantial transformation elements in the raw materials used without taking into account the percentage of local raw materials.
LOGO RATIONALE
Continuous recognition is a catalyst for the ability to produce products that are competitive in the local and international markets. With the concept of "be the best among the best", this logo is expected to be a driving force towards more persistent efforts in producing Malaysian products.
- Design
The logo that was created emphasizes the continuous efforts and recognition that is a source of inspiration for the Malaysian manufacturing community through small, medium and large industries symbolized by the three main stripes.
- Colour
The selection of colors is based on the basic colors of the Jalur Gemilang which symbolize the harmony, competitiveness and great spirit of Malaysians.
- The words MALAYSIAN PRODUCT and MADE IN MALAYSIA were chosen from the Helvetica Regular type to show the stance and strengthening of the Malaysian community.
