Mohd Isa Abdul Samad - Chairman of FELDA, and other delegates from FELDA had come for a visit. The Prime Minister was briefed by Yusuff Ali about various sections of the Hypermarket including products from Malaysia.

The proposed locations for the establishment of LuLu Hypermarket in Malaysia are Kota Bharu Kelantan, Bukit Katil Malacca, Ipoh Perak, Nilai Icon City Negeri Sembilan, and Shah Alam Selangor.

LuLu Hypermarket hopes to begin operations in Malaysia by early 2016 and this will add value to the Malaysian market by introducing the unique concept of Halal Hypermarkets. New halal products as well as FELDA SME products will be promoted in the LuLu Hypermarket chains in Malaysia and the Middle East. .
