Over the past few months, many small businesses have been impacted by the current situation and are still struggling to sustain themselves

Especially during this Ramadan season, many food vendors and local businesses have lost a big portion of their regular income stream.

For stores and small businesses, the limited capacity means they are getting lesser walk-ins.

Additionally, with fewer people visiting bazaars and the recent bad weather, food vendors are losing much-needed revenue.

With Maybank's Sama-Sama Lokal initiative, we can lend local businesses some support this Ramadan!

Sama-Sama Lokal is a free platform provided by Maybank that'll help local vendors gain exposure while allowing them to keep 100% of their earnings <3

Launched in April 2020, Sama-Sama Lokal has been assisting thousands of merchants to set up their stores online, from hawkers and food stalls, to markets and sundry shops.

The best part is that thanks to this initiative, you can enjoy delicious Ramadan treats delivered from neighbourhood makan spots right to your doorstep!

Here’s how you can show your neighbourhood heroes some love:
