In support of Malaysia Environment Week (Minggu Alam Sekitar), Guardian Health and Beauty (Guardian) launched its ‘Bring Your Orange Bag’ Campaign or ‘BYOB’ campaign in Melaka yesterday. In conjunction with the occasion, a series of three reusable bags, exclusively designed for Guardian were revealed to an excited audience at Dataran Pahlawan Megamall, Melaka.
The Guardian ‘Bring Your Orange Bag’ Campaign was created from funds collected from its participation in a nationwide ministry initiative, the No Plastic Bag Day Campaign. Signifying the three key aspects that best represent Guardian’s values, the bags are aptly named Trust, Passion & Inspiration.
Trust, the first bag to be released depicts the reliability of Guardian’s available health products. The second bag, Passion, represents confidence and beauty from the wide range of exclusive beauty products showcased at Guardian. Completing the collection, Inspiration best describes the fun, overall well-bring and positive-living gained from Guardian’s assorted lifestyle accessories.
Present at the launch was Malaysian actress and host, Deanna Yusoff, who shared with the audience her environmentally-friendly shopping habits. Deanna also presented prizes to winners of Guardian’s Final Challenge which involved a fine-the-word puzzle. A total of 10 contestants selected from BYOB’s 4-day Facebook contest took part in the Final Challenge in Melaka. Prior to the launch, Final Challenge contestants were asked to guess the acronym BYOB.
The Final Challenge winner received RM500 worth of Guardian vouchers, a hamper valued at RM200 and an exclusive goodie bag. Other prizes included RM100 Guardian shopping vouchers and goodie bags. Each finalist also received an exclusive photo and autograph session with Deanna Yusoff.
As part of the grand launch, Guardian stores in Melaka received an early release of the Trust bag. The nationwide release will be spread over a three-week period beginning 29 October to 4 November for Trust. This will be followed by Passion from 5 to 11 November 2015 and finally Inspiration from 12 to 18 November 2015.
During this period, a total of 150,000 reusable bags await lucky shoppers. The bags will be distributed free-of-charge with every purchase of RM80 and above in a single receipt and limited to one (1) bag per transaction. CIMB cardholders will be eligible for a special privilege of one bag with every minimum purchase of RM60 in a single receipt. The bags will be available at all Guardian outlets nationwide.
In conjunction with the BYOB launch, Guardian is also running a contest.
