Nine years, one promise: MR.DIY earns ninth consecutive World Branding Award

MR.DIY Honoured at World Branding Awards for Ninth Consecutive Year

KUALA LUMPUR, 10 November 2026 – Nine years after receiving its first World Branding Award, MR D.I.Y. Group has once again been recognised as the “Top Home Improvement Retail Brand” in the Regional Award Category, marking its ninth consecutive win at the prestigious awards.

Presented at the 21st edition of the World Branding Awards, organised by the World Branding Forum, the recognition reflects the trust MR.DIY has built among customers as it continues to grow across Malaysia and internationally.

MR.DIY’s World Branding Awards journey began with three consecutive National Awards from 2018 to 2020. This was followed by six consecutive Regional Awards from 2021 to 2026, a progression that mirrors the brand’s growth from a single hardware store in Malaysia to an international group with more than 6,000 stores globally.

MR.DIY Group’s Senior Vice President of Marketing, Alex Goh, said nine consecutive wins tell a story that goes beyond any single year.

“An award recognises a moment in time, but to be recognised for nine consecutive years reflects something much more meaningful: The trust our customers continue to place in us.

“For MR.DIY, value has never been about price alone. It is about offering our customers the right products, a convenient shopping experience, and service they can rely on - all at affordable prices. As we grow, we remain focused on delivering that promise consistently in every store and in every market.”

Goh added that the recognition also belonged to the people behind the brand.

“Our teams work hard every day to understand and serve the needs of communities across Malaysia and the region. This award is a tribute to their commitment, as well as to customers who have supported us throughout our journey. Their trust keeps us listening, improving and finding new ways to deliver greater value.”

MR.DIY began in 2005 as a small hardware store in Malaysia. Today, the Group operates more than 6,000 stores across its MR.DIY, MR.TOY and MR.DOLLAR retail formats, with teams across Thailand, Brunei, Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines, Cambodia, India, Turkey, Spain, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Poland, South Africa and Romania.

The World Branding Awards recognises leading brands at global, regional, and national levels. For the 2026-2027 edition, 2,000 brands from 62 countries were nominated, and winners were selected through a combination of brand valuation, consumer market research, and public online voting.

The awards ceremony took place in the Great Hall at Hampton Court Palace in the United Kingdom, bringing together winning brands from around the world in recognition of branding excellence and consumer trust.
