ShopeeFood Celebrates Over 400 Johor Riders with Special Appreciation Event
ShopeeFood Malaysia has once again demonstrated its appreciation for its delivery partners by organising a special two-day rider appreciation and engagement programme in Johor Bahru, bringing together more than 400 riders for a series of activities, rewards and meaningful conversations.
Held on 10 November 2026, the programme was organised to recognise the contributions of delivery partners while providing them with an opportunity to connect with fellow riders and ShopeeFood representatives beyond their everyday delivery routines.
Recognising the Hard Work of ShopeeFood Riders
One of the main highlights was the ShopeeFood Elite Appreciation Event, held at Kompleks Tan Sri Mohamed Rahmat. The gathering celebrated top-performing riders as well as those who have been part of ShopeeFood since its launch in Johor Bahru in 2022.
Besides enjoying a meal together, attendees received goodie bags and participated in various booth games and lucky draws. Some of the exciting prizes included a brand-new motorcycle, 1g and 0.5g gold bars, as well as Touch ‘n Go vouchers.
More importantly, the event provided a platform for riders to share their experiences, discuss challenges faced during deliveries and exchange feedback directly with ShopeeFood representatives through a dedicated dialogue session.
For many riders, the opportunity to have their voices heard and spend time with fellow delivery partners was just as meaningful as the rewards.
A Meaningful Experience for Delivery Partners
Among the riders attending the event was Solihin Bin Nigok, who has been delivering with ShopeeFood for almost two years.
He shared that he initially joined ShopeeFood to earn additional income and help manage his family’s financial commitments. The experience has allowed him to work independently while providing valuable services to customers and local businesses.
Solihin was also one of the lucky winners who took home a motorcycle through the lucky draw.
He expressed his happiness at receiving the prize and appreciated the opportunity to meet other riders and feel recognised for his contributions.
Supporting Riders Beyond Daily Deliveries
ShopeeFood also invited several partners to participate in the appreciation programme, including PolicyStreet, BHPetrol and the Employees Provident Fund (KWSP).
Through dedicated booths, riders could learn more about insurance coverage, receive petrol vouchers and register for an EPF account to support their long-term retirement planning.
These initiatives highlight the importance of looking after delivery partners beyond their daily work, particularly when it comes to financial security, protection and future planning.
Another interesting activity was the Spot Kak Krys Challenge, which encouraged riders to locate Kak Krys, ShopeeFood’s rider-engagement ambassador, at Sungai Sengget Walk.
Participants were required to complete several missions for a chance to win prizes, including 0.5g gold bars and Touch ‘n Go vouchers. The challenge also created opportunities for riders to interact, make new friends and strengthen relationships within the delivery community.
Meanwhile, the Singgah & Claim initiative at the ShopeeFood Delivery Partner Center offered care packs as a small token of appreciation.
Each pack included practical items such as an additional ShopeeFood rider T-shirt, arm sleeves, a sling bag and a packed meal to support riders during their daily deliveries.
Strengthening the ShopeeFood Rider Community
According to Willy Finkelstein, Head of Driver Operations for ShopeeFood, delivery partners remain an important part of the company’s operations.
He highlighted that riders play a significant role in supporting local businesses and connecting Malaysians with the products and services they need.
The Johor Bahru programme also builds on ShopeeFood’s earlier rider engagement activities held in Penang Island and Seberang Perai in July 2026.
Through these continued initiatives, ShopeeFood aims to strengthen its relationship with delivery partners and recognise their contributions across Malaysia.
Ultimately, the two-day appreciation programme was more than just an event filled with prizes and activities. It was an opportunity to celebrate the people who keep deliveries moving every day while creating a stronger and more connected rider community.
