Our Story
A short, accurate history. Everything on this page comes from the founder's own account of what was built and what happened next.
The record
Five statements are confirmed so far — nothing else on this page goes beyond them.
The markers carry no year. Dates are published only when the owner supplies evidence.
The founder personally developed ProdukSarawak.com on WordPress.
That platform supported actual ecommerce transactions.
The founder took part in international promotional activity involving Sarawak products alongside a ministry.
The earlier platform later became dormant.
SarawakProduct.com is a new, independently owned private commercial venture.
Why it exists
Sarawak makes remarkable things that are difficult to buy with confidence from outside the state. The earlier platform proved the demand and the mechanics. This one is built to make the experience match the product.
The business model
SarawakProduct.com is the principal retailer, reseller and distributor. We purchase or source products from approved suppliers and sell them to customers in our own name. It is not a multi-vendor marketplace, and there is no seller-registration route for third parties.
How we choose what to list
- Authenticity of origin is checked against supplier documentation, not against a product's cultural reputation.
- Products are bought and held by us, so availability and pricing are our responsibility to the customer.
- We prioritise items that travel well, since most orders leave Sarawak.
- B2C first, then corporate orders, then wholesale where the supply supports it.
What this does not mean
- Not to be read
- The new business is not operated, endorsed or owned by any ministry or government body.
- Not to be read
- Experience with the earlier platform is not a claim about this platform's trading history — it has none yet.
- Not to be read
- Exhibition names, years and locations are omitted rather than approximated, until documentary evidence is supplied.
SarawakProduct.com is an independently owned private commercial venture and the principal retailer of the goods it lists. It is not a government platform and is not operated, endorsed or owned by any ministry.
Evidence we would like to publish
Original screenshots of the earlier platform, exhibition records and dates, and any press coverage. When the owner supplies them, they appear here; until then the timeline stays undated.
Draft copy, awaiting the owner's review.
