This recognition marks a historic achievement for Malaysia’s halal frozen food industry, reaffirming Kanika’s position as a trusted, industry-leading brand built on quality, innovation, and global standards.

A Malaysian Halal Frozen Food Powerhouse Built Over Five Decades

Incorporated in 1991 and established in 1996 as part of the family’s 50-year legacy in frozen food trading, Kanika Malaysia has grown into one of the region’s most recognisable and respected halal frozen food brands.

Under the leadership of Philip Goey Soon Loong, Executive Chairman, and Vinnie Ang Seyok Hoon, Chief Executive Officer — both celebrated industry leaders — the company has expanded its offerings to more than 1,200 Halal-certified SKUs, sourced globally from countries including Norway, Chile, Australia, New Zealand, India, Vietnam, Thailand, China, Japan, Korea, Indonesia, and more.

Kanika’s diverse halal product categories span seafood, Japanese food, dim sum, ready-to-eat meals, surimi-processed food, desserts, and other premium selections — providing Malaysians and regional markets with safe, high-quality, and globally sourced halal frozen products.

This achievement reflects Kanika’s long-standing philosophy:

“Think Frozen Food, Think Kanika.”

A brand synonymous with reliability, premium sourcing, and stringent food safety standards.
