Edmark Group of Companies is a multi-million
dollar company with market presence in over 25 countries and is
involved in various business interests from manufacturing and
soon to real estate development. Edmark started as Ever Dynamic
Marketing in 1984. It is from this name that the word EDMARK was
conceived, with the letter “D” in red color to represent
its perpetual “dynamism.”
The company was initially involved in marketing
other manufacturer’s products through live demonstration
at counters in Malaysia, as well as in exhibits in other parts
of the World. It was thru the vision of its founder, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer – Mr. Sam Low Ban Chai that
Edmark became one of the world’s successful brand and a
company known for synergizing dynamic business principles with
spiritual foundations.
In
1989 Edmark Industries SBN BHD was incorporated in Malaysia to
cater to the growing demand for more Edmark products, most notable
of which is the “Rolling Ruler.” The said product
was a huge success in Europe, Middle East and in the United States
and was even sold over North American infommercial TV channels.
This signaled the start of Edmark venturing into its own product
development, innovation and manufacturing. Another milestone product
for the company is the invention and patent of its famous Super
Slicer.
Since 1994, the Super Slicer has been exported
to more than 25 countries and is now considered an indispensable
kitchen tool worldwide. By 2009 Edmark Industries will be transferring
to a new and bigger manufacturing complex to cater to the growing
demands of the market. Edmark’s high quality standard operating
procedures are widely recognized thru the following certifications
and citations: GMP Codex Alimentarius (recommended code of practice
and general principles of food hygiene for manufacturing of food
supplements and beverages and for its GMP clean rooms and laboratories)
HALAL Certificate of Authentication (for complying with Halal
requirements according to Islamic Law for its Food Supplements
and Beverages) and the latest of which is the ISO 25000:2005 the
highest certification awarded to food supplement and beverage
manufacturers.
Another
remarkable accomplishment of the Edmark Group of Companies is
the creation of Edmark Products Ltd. and Edmark Freris in the
Philippines in 1992 to specifically market innovative household
products and conduct live product demonstrations in SM Supermalls
and other major shopping centers. This company started with only
with two personnel based on a rented house in St. Ignatius Village,
Manila. With Edmark’s exceptional way of demonstrating its
products the company is now made up of over 400 staff nationwide.
The early successes brought about by the said
companies have been magnified many times over because of the phenomenal
growth of its multi-level marketing arm - Edmark Philippines and
Edmark International. The company boasts itself as the only MLM
company in the Philippines with its own 6 storey building in the
middle of Quezon City’s business hub.
With
the support of over 120,000 local distributors/entrepreneurs locally
and 80,000 international distributors in 7 countries (United Arab
Emirates, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, Philippines,
Ghana and soon Nigeria and Malaysia) Edmark will not only market
healthy living products but will also venture into real estate
development, thus the establishment of its newest company Edmark
City. Edmark City is set to carve out an upscale high-rise, residential-commercial
condominium clusters.
The project is a timely and appropriate response
to the emerging need for a green and well-appointed yet truly
affordable suburban living. The project entails land development,
massive building construction and installation of well-planned
features and amenities.
Edmark
City is positioned to be the first fully integrated “spiritual
business center,” away from the hustle and bustle of normal
city living yet accessible and relatively near to the Metropolis.
It will be home and a center to Edmarkers’ various businesses,
leisure, social and spiritual activities.
By the year 2009, Edmark also plans to establish
its own foundation to further propagate its guiding philosophy
of “People Helping People Succeed” based on the four
pillars of gratitude, abundance, love and compassion. The creation
of this foundation will be one of the company’s many direct
actions in taking the four pillars to new heights.
