Heritage
A story of growth and success

Our Story

Our story begins in 1962, established under the name of “Lee’s Frozen Food Sdn Bhd” in Kampung Attap, Malaysia. It was here where Lee’s opened its first retail outlet, offering the best products sourced from every continent of the world – consistently great quality and prices across a wide range of products.

Today, Lee’s name stands strong, having transcended two generations of family. The current torchbearers are the third generation of Lee’s folk: Gareth and Adeline Tan, the grandchildren of the founders, who, having ascended the administration circa 2000, have brought about an age of renewal for the company. In a well-timed shift into the future, an inevitable step for any serious business, the brother and sister team, drawing inspiration from the courage of their predecessors, in a show of “carpe diem” and set up strongholds in Vietnam and Cambodia. Success soon followed, and in its wake, the burning fire of a passion that seeks to bring Lee’s back to its former glory, closer to home in Malaysia.

Later in 2010, Mr.Gareth Tan embarked on a new journey to success in the land of the kingdom of Cambodia by starting his partnership with Oknha Chan Dara. The expansion and penetration into the Cambodian Market, setting up the subsidiary company, marked the beginning of Lee’s Food Service,. Ltd as we know it today. Since the construction of Lee’s Warehouse finished in 2021, we have welcomed a number of the most renowned and reputable cold chain businesses into Lee’s family.
