SHAH ALAM, 26 JUNE 2023 – PKNS Real Estate Sdn Bhd (PREC), a special entity established as an investment arm for the Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS) group of companies, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Bateriku (M) Sdn. Bhd. (“Bateriku.com”) earlier today at SACC Mall, Shah Alam. The collaboration will see Malaysia’s number one Connected Roadside Assistance Solutions (CRAS) provider, Bateriku, enhance and expand both shopping and vehicle ownership experiences by providing its on-demand breakdown services at all PREC commercial premises, beginning with SACC Mall, Shah Alam.   PREC currently manages six iconic commercial real estate properties in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur: Kompleks PKNS Shah Alam, Kompleks PKNS Bangi, Menara PKNS Petaling Jaya, Menara Worldwide Bukit Bintang, Wisma Yakin Kuala Lumpur, and Shah Alam’s number one neighborhood mall, SACC Mall. The MoU signed between the two entities will also provide working opportunities for the Shah Alam community to be part of Bateriku’s gig ecosystem, as it involves the establishment of Bateriku’s Pitstop Cabin at SACC Mall's main parking lot.   The establishment of the Pitstop demonstrates Bateriku’s commitment to further value-add to SACC Mall’s evergreen presence by organizing future automotive and motorsport-related activities through its media arm, MotorManiac. The MoU is signed for the next two years, granting all commercial premises under PREC access to Bateriku’s seamless vehicle ownership experience via the company’s beyond-batteries product range and services.   According to the CEO of PREC, Sr. Fakru Radzi, “I am confident that the collaboration between PREC and Bateriku in this shopping mall ecosystem owned by PREC will provide a positive impact and add value to the facilities of SACC Mall, the surrounding community, and the tenants to explore business opportunities through this strategic collaboration.”   He added, “Overall, this collaboration will open up job opportunities, increase the number of visitors, and further help the existing tenants to boost their sales and business growth. This collaboration will certainly provide a more interesting shopping experience for visitors to PREC’s shopping malls.”   Through this strategic collaboration, Bateriku will bring significant value to tenants by offering special discounts, vouchers, coupons, and access to its customer database of over 1 million for SACC-related events.   The goal is to provide a comprehensive automotive solution that enhances the overall experience for those visiting or working at SACC Mall, Shah Alam. According to the CEO of Bateriku, Azarol Faizi: “PREC is a real force in property management with sustainable commercial properties developed and managed under their portfolio. SACC Mall, for example, has been a place-maker for Selangorians, especially the Shah Alam community, for the past 18 years.   It’s only fitting that this long-term collaboration starts here, where Bateriku also began its business. We are grateful for the trust, and I believe the success of this collaboration at SACC Mall will serve as a blueprint for future ventures with other establishments under PREC’s umbrella.”   With this collaboration, tenants and visitors will be just a scan away from receiving Bateriku’s on-demand SOS Roadside Assistance services, ensuring a seamless and convenient shopping and vehicle ownership experience.   By working together, both entities aim to revolutionize the automotive services industry by creating a benchmark for exceptional customer experiences. PREC and Bateriku are confident that their collaboration will elevate automotive service standards at SACC Mall, Shah Alam, and set a new benchmark for the commercial retail industry. Together, they aim to create a seamless and convenient experience for customers while supporting the growth of the local automotive ecosystem.
