Liangjiang enterprise partners with Malaysian company to boost food industry digitalization

GYMD Digital Technology Co and its Malaysian joint venture, Agytek Digital, have teamed up with Malaysian rice company Padiberas Nasional Berhad (Bernas) to develop a comprehensive end-to-end digital solution aimed at transforming and upgrading the Southeast Asian food industry.

Bernas, a key player in ensuring Malaysia's food security, holds the exclusive government-authorized concession for the import, procurement, storage, transportation, and distribution of rice.

Agytek Digital, a joint venture between GYMD and Malaysia's Altel, part of Albukhary Group, began collaborating with Bernas in 2025 on a digital transformation project that spans the entire industry chain, including rice imports, local procurement, and warehousing logistics.

With Agytek's support, Bernas has launched a digital transformation blueprint featuring 21 core system modules and developed an end-to-end platform that combines demand forecasting, order management, warehousing logistics, and customer delivery.

Agytek has crafted a tailored end-to-end digital solution, reducing inventory losses and idle costs, enhancing supply chain transparency, forecasting capabilities, and operational efficiency, and decreasing reliance on manual labor and data re-entry.

A Bernas delegation recently visited GYMD's headquarters in Liangjiang New Area, where both parties conducted an on-site review meeting, planning to utilize AI technology to address real business challenges, such as optimizing inventory aging and reducing turnover costs.

A GYMD representative said that the partnership with Bernas is a strong endorsement of GYMD's technological capabilities, setting a new benchmark for modern management in Malaysia's food industry and highlighting Chinese industrial internet companies' role in driving the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries.
