The Ramly Group is a Malaysian frozen and fast food company founded by Haji Ramly Mokni through Pemasaran Ramly Mokni Sdn Bhd.[1] The company produces burger patties, frankfurter, nuggets, meat balls, fried chicken, buns and sauces like chilli and mayonnaise as well as operates burger stalls widely in Malaysia.

History

The company was founded by Haji Ramly Mokni in 1984, with the aim of developing a clean and good-quality halal Western fast-food chain in Malaysia. Ramly started a business selling burgers with his wife from street food stalls in 1979.[2] While working as a butcher in a market, he discovered that it is unknown whether most fresh-meat sources were halal or not,[3] leading to Ramly's decision to produce a halal-certified meat source for all Muslim consumers in Malaysia.[2]

Expansion

As of 25 August 2015, the company has invested around MYR1 billion to build a factory in the Halal Hub Industrial Park, Indah Island, Selangor,[4][5] with a MYR2 billion revenue target once its factory opens in the latter half of 2017.[6] The Ramly Group currently exports its products to Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Myanmar, Cambodia and Bangladesh, and is planning to export its products to other Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam and the Philippines, and is looking into expanding into the Middle Eastern and East Asian markets.[6]

Products

Ramly Burger

An original beef Ramly Burger Special.

Aside from producing burger meat and other frozen foods, the company is also known for its street stalls, which have sold the Ramly Burger in every state in Malaysia since 1979.[3][7][8] The amount and type of burger ingredients can vary greatly depending on location, but usually consist of a beef or chicken patty, margarine, onions, an egg, cabbage, cheese, mayonnaise, soy sauce and various seasonings. The burgers are considered by many to be a local delicacy, especially by city dwellers.[2]

The burger (patties) has been banned in Singapore due to the meat coming from sources which are not on the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority of Singapore approved list of Commercial Food Imports for Meats which could pose a potential health risk.[9] Singaporean street vendors continue to use the Ramly Burger wrapper.[2][10]
