Shah Alam, 2 April 2021 – A deeply rooted tradition observed in Sabah and Sarawak is the annual thanksgiving Harvest festival marking the bountiful abundance of rice harvesting. To commemorate the festivities, Carlsberg launches first-of-its-kind Harvest packaging that accentuates tribal elements and icons of paddy on Carlsberg Danish Pilsner and Carlsberg Smooth Draught cans.

Celebrated throughout Sabah as Kaamatan and Gawai in Sarawak, the harvest festivals are a massive cultural celebration with families, friends and tribe members over delectable meals, traditional dance, and music pre-COVID. As we approach the second year of Harvest amid the pandemic, Carlsberg wishes to uplift spirits with its Harvest campaign and to rekindle relationships in a modest manner with beer lovers.   

“Carlsberg’s Harvest campaign is a continuation of our CELEBRATE series following the resounding success of this year’s Chinese New Year (CNY) “Celebrate Prosperity” limited-edition packaging. Being mindful of the current sentiment, Carlsberg contributed to societies in need through our ‘Cheers For Tomorrow’ CNY food aid campaign which benefitted up to 815 Sabahans and Sarawakians. Last year, through our Safer Schools initiative, Carlsberg Malaysia disinfected 80 schools in Sabah and 186 schools in Sarawak, and provided handheld thermometers to give teachers, parents, and students a peace of mind as schoolchildren resumed classes. As we approach another celebratory occasion for East Malaysians, we hope to enlighten the festive spirit through our Harvest campaign and we wish all Sabahans and Sarawakians a happy and safe celebration.” said Stefano Clini, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia.
