Bata Malaysia

A strong reflection of where we are heading. Our recent conversation with New Straits Times features Panos Mytaros sharing the direction for Bata and the opportunity ahead in Malaysia. As Panos shared, “Bata is a sleeping giant.” With 𝗥𝗲-𝗜𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲 in motion, the focus is clear, building a stronger brand, elevating our products, and making Bata more relevant and accessible across the market.  A meaningful step forward as we build the next phase of the business 🔥 Read full article here - bit.ly/4tUDn1b Bata Group #WeAreBata

As Raya winds down, the memories stay. 🌙 A season of reflection, forgiveness, and 𝘬𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘨-𝘬𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘨, a reset that brings us back to what truly matters. The laughter, the conversations, the moments we shared together as a team. This season was about coming together internally, celebrating what we’ve built and the people behind it. A reminder of why we do what we do. To be part of everyday lives, and to build something meaningful together. And as we move forward, 𝗥𝗲-𝗜𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲 continues, with more purpose, more energy, and a stronger connection across our teams and customers. Because the season may end, but the way we show up, doesn’t.

A visit that brought sharper focus and renewed energy 💯. Welcoming Panos Mytaros to Malaysia was a meaningful moment for our teams on the ground. Beyond the business conversations, it reinforced what Re-Ignite stands for, putting our people first, strengthening our brand, and continuously raising how we show up every day. This was clearly felt across our teams and stores. There is stronger alignment, greater ownership, and a shared drive to keep improving. We’re not just moving forward, we’re pushing ourselves to be better. Re-Ignite is not just a strategy. It’s how we show up, every day, across everything we do. Thank you, Panos, for your time, perspective, and continued belief in what we are building together. Malaysia Boleh 🔥 Bata Group #weareBata

Selamat Hari Raya from all of us at Bata 🌙✨ Raya is the time we come back. To family, to traditions, and to the people who matter most. This year, “A Step Closer” is about those small moments. The visits, the conversations, and the time spent together. With Novak Batik, we’ve created Raya packets inspired by this spirit. Beginning with the ketupat and flowing into bunga tanjung and bunga melur, reflecting humility, sincerity, and togetherness. A small piece, made to be shared. Balik kampung. Jumpa yang tersayang. Luangkan masa bersama. Itulah Raya. Wishing you a meaningful and joyful Hari Raya. Selamat Hari Raya, maaf zahir dan batin 🤍 Bata Group #weareBata

🧧 Welcoming the Lunar New Year with good vibes, festive cheer, and great company🐴 We had the pleasure of spending time with our CHCO, Luc Valentin, and HR Director LATAM & Southeast Asia, Valeria Cordero Lorenzetti, on the ground with our teams. From the energy of the lion dance to tossing yee sang together, the day was centred on connection, alignment, and honest dialogue. Beyond the festivities, what stood out was the simplicity of it: leaders showing up, listening, asking questions, and connecting directly with the people who power the brand every day, helping us re-ignite our focus and momentum for what lies ahead. In the Year of the Horse, a symbol of drive and resilience, may the year ahead bring you strength, progress, and meaningful wins in all that you do. Gong Xi Fa Cai 🧧✨ Bata Group #weareBata

🧧 Our CNY Angpow this year carries a story close to the heart. We collaborated with Lihuà, whose artwork is inspired by her childhood memories of Chinese New Year, reunion, joy, lion dances, fireworks, and the energy of the season brought to life through flowing, expressive strokes. As Lihuà shared: “𝘉𝘢𝘵𝘢 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘥, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘐 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘸 𝘶𝘱 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘮𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴.

As the year comes to a close, we took a moment to celebrate Christmas together. A small pause to reflect, connect, and appreciate the people behind the company. Throughout the year, our focus has been on serving our customers better and continuing to evolve as a company. Moments like these remind us that what truly powers the brand is the dedication, teamwork, and care of the people who show up every day to make it happen.
