Thank you Dato' Ameer of Mydin Hypermarket


Recently a group of us researchers went to Mydin Hypermarket in Subang Jaya to interview Y. Bhg Dato' Ameer, the Managing Director/CEO of the company. We were completing our research project on Usahawan Berjaya. Dato' Ameer were very kind to show us around the store and spent a good three hours discussing with us. One interesting trait about the Mydin Hypermarket is how the Mydin family members from many generations come in full force to make sure that the company is successful. We were very fortunate to have met Dato' Ameer's dad (his parents were at the store during our visit) who started the original business in Penang . Then he moved to Kelantan to start another business in Kota Baru. Dato' Ameer's eldest brother initiated a business in Kuala Terengganu. Dato' Ameer himself further expanded the business to what it is today. we hope to complete our research and book on this topic very soon.
