Web Design 2 : Redesign Commercial Website

Redesign Website: Ghee Hiang
Target: To redesign the website to make it more interesting. More attractive to people who came visit the website.

The Legacy of Ghee Hiang

It is originated from Fujian, China since 1856, it has also become an integral part of Penang, Malaysia's colourful heritage and mesmerising traditions.

In 1856, during a period when the tin mining and rubber industries in Malaya (now Malaysia) was flourishing and attracted many Chinese immigrants from Southern China, the founder invited a Fujian Pastry Chef to Penang and adopted the name Ghee Hiang. This marked the beginning of Ghee Hiang traditional pastries in Penang.

Then in 1900's, Ghee Hiang Baby Brand Pure Sesame Oil was introduced, using methods and techniques learned from Fujian, China.

Through the years of further refinement and quality seeds selection, Ghee Hiang Baby Brand Sesame Oil had gained much appreciation, demand and popularity. It had become a trusted brand name for uses ranging from households, food industries, restaurants to healthcare.

This are their mascot.Each of them represent an individual product.
