GOPENG – The Agro MADANI Mega Sales Programme @ RTC Perak, which was held over three days until Sunday, received an encouraging response from the public.
Visitors generally praised the efforts of FAMA and the Perak State Government in helping to ease the cost of living through the sale of a wide range of fresh agricultural produce and daily essentials.
One visitor, Syamimi Alias, said programmes such as this should be continued as they enable families to purchase quality products at more affordable prices.
The programme offered savings of between 30 and 40 percent compared to market prices, providing significant benefits to consumers.
In addition to fresh agricultural produce, visitors also took the opportunity to purchase daily necessities available at the Mydin supermarket booth.
Another visitor, Azira Aiza, said she travelled from Bidor specifically to take advantage of the attractive prices offered at the programme.
She said she spent about RM200, including RM100 on kitchen essentials, which were sold at substantially lower prices than usual.
As of 31 May 2026, a total of 169 Agro MADANI Sales Programmes had been successfully organised throughout Perak, generating sales worth RM3.76 million.
This achievement reflects the effectiveness of the initiative in strengthening the marketing of agri-food products while increasing the income of local entrepreneurs.
At the same time, the programme has helped consumers gain access to quality food supplies at more affordable prices.
By the end of 2026, FAMA Perak aims to organise 421 Agro MADANI Sales Programmes across the state.
The initiative is expected to further expand the programme’s benefits to a larger number of consumers and entrepreneurs throughout Perak.
