Honestbee to suspend food and grocery delivery services in Malaysia from July 22
Thursday, 18 Jul 2019
4:03 PM MYT
Honestbee has announced that it will be temporarily suspending both its food and grocery delivery services in Malaysia from July 22 onward, stating that no delivery slots will be available from then until further notice.
“After a strategic review of our company’s businesses, our headquarters in Singapore has made a firm decision to temporarily suspend our operations in Malaysia. This is to ensure we can meet our financial commitments to our merchants, partners and suppliers as we carefully review the future of our operations,” Honestbee Malaysia said in a press statement to The Star.
The suspension will have no effect on full time employees at Honestbee Malaysia, while riders and shopper Bees “currently working with us will have the option to pursue other career paths when the opportunity arises, but most certainly be welcomed to rejoin the course of our business when we restore operations”, the company stated.
For customers who have purchased plans under beehive, an Honestbee subscription plan that comes with buy one-free one offers to dine-in at selected restaurants, the company said it will contact them to offer refunds, adding that no new deals will be announced during the temporary suspension period.
In April, website TechCrunch first reported that Honestbee is facing financial issues. Then in May, Honestbee introduced Brian Koo as the new chief executive officer of the company, replacing former co-founder Joel Sng.
“As CEO and chairman of the board at Honestbee headquarters, Brian and the group leadership team at Honestbee have been focused on fundraising and pursuing other strategic opportunities to leverage our successes thus far and to bring the company to financial sustainability,” the company said in its statement.
“The team at Honestbee Malaysia and our regional counterparts endeavour to meet all our payment obligations to our merchants, partners and suppliers. On top of that, the communication individually will take place at a local level in the next few days,” it added.
Honestbee first entered the local market in 2017, then focusing on grocery delivery services in Klang Valley. The company has expanded its services to Johor Bahru and Penang.
Its last day of operations before the temporary suspension of services on the aforementioned date will be on July 21. Its physical store habitat by Honestbee in Singapore remains open.

Honestbee ni servis agak hauk. Iols punya order pernah delay almost 4hrs kot. Alasan takde staff. Pastu tak reti nak call or update customer. Iols lagi suka happyfresh sebab rider berkualiti. Contoh cam iols kirim bawang, tapi bawang busuk, rider siap whatsapp video call nak tunjuk bawang busuk n asked first to proceed or not. If lambat pun, diorang akan update accordingly and their customer service pun akan call to apologize |

Mungkin kat sana lebih success. Setakat ni i byk stick to grab. Food, delivery, car. Sbb boleh terus tau jumlah yg kena bayar dan boleh terus bayar pakai debit card. Few times cuba nak guna apps lain tapi tk ada je halangan. Cuba grab food mcm tk boleh pilih lebih dari 1 kedai utk 1 order |
