About First Grade Resources Sdn. Bhd.

First Grade Resources Sdn. Bhd. is the leading Halal Open Equipment Manufacturer in Malaysia. As an OEM service provider, we specialize in creating high-quality, products that align with our client’s unique specifications, ensuring their brand identity is upheld.

2008
The Humble Beginnings

First Grade Resources was founded by Tuan Haji Zulkifli Yusop starting with just 4 employees, a modest capital of RM1,000 and a single shop lot. Initially, the company focussed on selling perfumes. With high demand and strong sales for its perfumes, First Grade Resources quickly gained attraction in the market.

Expanding Horizons

Recognizing an opportunity to innovate, Tuan Haji Zulkifli Yusop decided to infuse the popular perfume aromas into new products, introducing slimming creams and body lotions to the market. This venture marked the company's entry into the beauty and wellness industry. Shortly after, the company expanded further into health supplements, catering to the growing demand for holistic well-being products.

2011

 In 2011, First Grade Resources diversified its offerings by venturing into event
planning and catering services, securing prominent clients, including former Prime Minister Dato Seri Najib and Sultan Azlan Muhibbuddin Shah.

2012
Strategic Shift and Growth

 By 2012, Tuan Haji Zulkifli Yusop made the pivotal decision to focus entirely on OEM
manufacturing, transforming First Grade Resources from a small enterprise into
First Grade Resources Sdn Bhd.This strategic shift propelled the company’s growth, as it began receiving increasing demands for manufacturing services from various founders.

2016

 The company expanded its workforce from 4 employees in 2008 to 73 employees by 2016, and its facilities grew from a single shop lot to an industrial sized factory capable of handling larger production capacities.

2022
A New Milestone

In 2022, First Grade Resources opened a new branch in Jitra, Kedah, focusing on
sales and marketing for OEM and in-house products. This branch plays a crucial role
in serving the Perlis and Kedah regions, strengthening the company's market presence in northern Malaysia.

2022
A Visionary Future

 Beyond manufacturing products for clients, First Grade Resources has established its own in-house brands, including Tok Babah, Nutrafemme, Lite7, Skin Drama, and others in development. These brands reflect the company’s commitment to innovation and quality.

Present

 Today, First Grade Resources Sdn Bhd has grown to nearly 200 employees, operating
