: Penang’s oldest surviving coffee manufacturer Sin Boon Kee Factory, which has served quality and aromatic coffee to Penangites for 79 years, is all geared up to expand its operations throughout Malaysia with more product variations.
“I want to grow this company further, so among the changes I made were developing products for end-users such as three-in-one sachet drinks as well as opening our own coffee shop called SBK Coffee Concept Store in 2020,” he told Bernama. “We are a small factory but we have been supplying locally for more than 79 years. We are planning to move into a new factory also in Penang next year so that we are able to increase our capacity to cater to our increased operations including establishing more SBK Coffee Concept Store outlets,” he said.
“It tastes a bit different from the traditional ‘kopi o’ although it looks similar and the pricing is a bit expensive, so kopitiam operators cannot sell it. We have about 800 kopitiam customers in Penang and we got over 700 rejections.
