Bioalpha Holdings Bhd is sharpening its focus on integrated manufacturing and herb cultivation as demand for its Misai Kucing-based products gains traction in overseas markets, particularly South Korea.
The health product manufacturer, which operates across OEM, ODM and CDMO services, said its business model is anchored by a fully integrated supply chain spanning cultivation to finished goods, alongside Halal-certified production standards.
“Our operational principle is clear: if we do it, we do it best,” said Joe Ang, Executive Director of Bioalpha.
She added, “We understand that every client seeks to create a product that resonates with the market. Through our dedicated market analysis and R&D teams, combined with efficient HALAL-certified production lines, we provide more than manufacturing, we deliver the technical insights and support needed for successful market entry. Our mission remains to make high-quality health products more accessible, ensuring consumers can benefit with confidence and peace of mind.”
The group highlighted that 100% of its Misai Kucing supply is self-cultivated and certified under Malaysian Good Agricultural Practices (MYGAP), with plantations located in Pasir Raja and Desaru. It began standardised cultivation in 2012 and expanded exports in 2018.
Bioalpha currently supplies around 10 metric tonnes annually, with capacity expected to double to 20 metric tonnes within the next two years as international demand rises.
South Korea has emerged as a key growth market, where the company is working with a local brand owner under a non-disclosure agreement to supply both raw materials and finished products.
Misai Kucing is traditionally associated with wellness applications including blood sugar regulation, kidney support and anti-inflammatory properties, forming a core part of Bioalpha’s herbal portfolio alongside Tongkat Ali and Soursop.
The group said its integrated system is designed to ensure traceability, consistency and scalability as it expands its global nutraceutical footprint.
