As if no saturated enough already, the Malaysian mobile market has yet another new challenger. This time it’s Shenzhen-born KENXINDA, which chose Malaysia as the first point of entry for its Asia-wide expansion. “Cheap and cheerful” will be the brand’s bread-and-butter, with its products costing no more than MYR500.
Established in 2003 in Shenzhen, China, KENXINDA was primarily a mobile phone and accessories trader until 2007. It then ventured into designing and developing its own products. In 2012, the company’s export sales exceeded RMB250billion.
Daniel Chia, CEO of KENXINDA Malaysia said, “We believe our products will blow away our customers with the the best customer experience, at affordable prices.” You may recognize Chia from also being the Head of Marketing, at local mobile brand iPRO Malaysia.
