In Australia, oldtown has positioned itself as a premium restaurant, more premium than pappa rich. But yet in Malaysia, it is positioned as affordable. This will likely cause brand confusion. I suspect they will also go for premium positioning in China.

kchia & Junyu - i didnt mention anyone ya!haha~
soojinhou - thank you for your information, positioned itself as premium restaurant in overseas only can increase profit & profit margin and build up brand name but not in Malaysia.
sakurakid4-希望有知情人士提供我们这方面的资讯咯

Everyone has own pattern of understanding things, via sharing & discussion, we may see something we could have omitted.

Thank you for sharing your view & thought, twot.

my hometown oldtown look like wanna closed d. No customer at all.
Although the coffee is good but the food control quality very poor!

Posted by kk > 2016-08-27 17:28 | Report Abuse

It only my opinion, the food price a bit high. Meal/set almost RM20.
For me, it not worth.

I like their Roti kahwin with thick cold butter & kaya.
But, their service very slow, bad impression .
Wait for 10min, no one cleaning the table .

Eventhough the restaurant with no other customers.

If you look at it. .the increase is in defer tax..it means previously some if the revenue or income or expenses that used to be tax exempt is not approved and thus oldtown need to pay back in this quarter..it will not be a recurring tax

Oldtown can not survive long in malaysia . But i found it can still expand transit its business chain to China .

Straight forward and good article.

Why not BJ Food? RM 1.56 only also coffee business.

Posted by RainT > 2016-08-28 09:52 | Report Abuse

Starbucks brand name stronger
Future prospect better
Share price lower but PE higher

Posted by RainT > 2016-08-28 09:53 | Report Abuse

I will prefer Starbuks aka BJFOOD
Just some of the Kenny Rogers , jolibean cause loss only

Posted by twot > 2016-08-28 10:09 | Report Abuse

Thanks digidigi~ :)
RainT-cheaper price stock doesnt mean good or can rise more. That is a very wrong mindset.
but I didn't say BJFOOD not good la. It's true that Starbucks have stronger brand name BUT can Malaysia's Starbucks or BJFOOD sell their Starbucks overseas? Maybe one day OLDTOWN can become "Starbucks in China"? Which has much more bigger market potential! As I know, overseas like US and Australia, they also dont have very good comment on theirs Starbucks too, like what Malaysians we see on our country OLDTOWN!

Posted by twot > 2016-08-28 10:13 | Report Abuse

Everyone please focus on OLDTOWN Manufacturing of Beverages (FMCG) segment, that is a much more excited things that you should see on OLDTOWN! BIGGER MARKET & HIGHER PROFIT MARGIN and It is growing rapidly!

twot is OldTown M'sia stock and not China(sorry I see many Chinese words above and not understand)? I see their M'sia business getting worse. In my home town some outlets were closed. Sorry I am newbie so need to ask.

thx for sharing, twot =D

Posted by ktsk88 > 2016-08-29 10:06 | Report Abuse

no surprise more outlets closing because the food quality is getting worse than the day it open for biz.

Posted by soohau78 > 2016-08-29 11:59 | Report Abuse

buy Oldtown for its FMCG biz especially in China/HK market. Let's treat cafe as distribution point & promote brand awareness tool.

Posted by Hotrod > 2016-08-30 00:29 | Report Abuse

Oldtown's strategy is to use its cafe division to build branding. They don't mind making thin margins there because they can make back much more in the FMCG segment with their established branding.
