Companies left right and centre are doing their part to empower local businesses during the MCO and Carousell is no different. The company has today announced the launch of the #TetapBuka Online Ramadan Bazaar, to give a platform to local business owners to sell their food items during the fasting month.

#TetapBuka rallies Malaysians to support the smaller F&B establishments within their area, especially
during this time when the Movement Control Order (MCO) is enforced and vendors are unable to set up
their stalls at physical Ramadan Bazaars. By using filters inbuilt within the Carousell app, users are able
to search within a 10km radius of their location to narrow down the food vendors nearest to them.

Its partnership with Unilever Food Solutions, a key food service supplier with brands such as Knorr, Best
Foods and Lipton, has connected Carousell with thousands of F&B businesses onto the marketplace to
host the online bazaar.

The onboarding process will ensure that business owners who have not had prior experience with online operations are still able to list on Carousell for increased visibility.

With Carousell listings, F&B owners will be able to provide on-demand takeaway services without having to pay a premium or commission to external vendors, and Carousellers will be able to conveniently and directly support the local F&B establishments near them. Interested F&B outlets may list on Carousell following these simple guidelines.

The #TetapBuka Online Ramadan Bazaar is part of an ongoing initiative between Carousell and Unilever
to support local F&B establishments during the MCO, which will be ongoing until April 28.
