Treasure Global Subsidiary Tien Ming Partners with Taxieco to Reinvent Last-Mile Delivery for Malaysia's Digital Economy

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Treasure Global Inc. (NASDAQ:TGL) ("Treasure Global" or the "Company"), a leading e-commerce platform operator, today announced that its subsidiary, Tien Ming Distribution Sdn Bhd ("Tien Ming Distribution"), has entered into a strategic partnership with Taxieco New World Limited ("Taxieco"), a technology-driven logistics solutions provider. This alliance aims to combine Tien Ming Distribution's robust fulfillment network with Taxieco's advanced logistics technology to improve operational efficiency, scale market reach across Malaysia, and support small business growth and regional economic development.

Under this partnership, Tien Ming Distribution will integrate Taxieco's Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, including GPS-enabled T-boxes, real-time data solutions, and compliance-supporting smart devices, to enhance its nationwide grocery delivery and logistics services via its TMGrocer platform. By combining the platform's proven capabilities in safe, efficient logistics operations with Taxieco's advanced hardware and data infrastructure, the parties aim to co-develop scalable, end-to-end logistics solutions tailored for online sellers and SMEs throughout Malaysia. This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to innovation, efficiency, and inclusive growth in Malaysia's digital and regional commerce ecosystem.

"We are excited to join forces with Tien Ming Distribution to build smarter, more responsive logistics infrastructure across Malaysia. Our IoT-enabled solutions, including GPS tracking, smart delivery devices, and real-time data systems, are designed to support high-efficiency operations at scale. By combining our technology with TMGrocer's extensive delivery network, we're creating a powerful platform that supports the growth of local businesses and delivers meaningful value to end consumers," said CS Lau, Chief Executive Director of Taxieco.

This collaboration comes at a time of rapid growth in Malaysia's online grocery delivery sector. According to Statista, revenue in the grocery delivery market is projected to reach US$2.50 billion in 2025, and is expected to grow to US$4.03 billion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. This upward trend is fueled by Malaysian consumers' increasing preference for fresh, locally sourced products and growing awareness around health and sustainability. Urbanization and fast-paced lifestyles are further accelerating demand for convenient, tech-enabled grocery delivery solutions, underscoring the strategic relevance of the partnership between Tien Ming Distribution and Taxieco.

"This partnership with Taxieco marks a significant step forward in our mission to transform last-mile logistics and empower small businesses across Malaysia," said Carlson Thow, Chief Executive Officer of Treasure Global and Director of Tien Ming Distribution. "By integrating advanced IoT technologies into our TMGrocer operations, we are not only enhancing delivery efficiency and transparency but also aligning with the evolving needs of consumers who demand convenience, freshness, and reliability. Together, we aim to set a new benchmark for logistics innovation in Malaysia's rapidly growing e-commerce ecosystem."
