Mamee Monster Evokes Childhood Nostalgia with Limited Edition Retro Design Packs

Mamee Monster, the country’s best known and loved homegrown noodle snack is taking a trip down memory lane with the 1970s version of the brand’s famous blue Mamee Monster making a returnthis month.

Malaysians can expect to see the iconic blue Mamee Monster back in its familiar 2D retro formaton the brand’s bright yellow Mamee Monster Family Pack bags as the products become available in Malaysia and Singapore from March 2023 onwards for limited time only.
There will also be collectible stickers in the packs, just like how Mamee Monster used to include surprise items in-pack. This limited-edition packaging with vintage vibes is being rolled out as atribute to MAMEE-Double Decker’s late founder and executive chairman, Datuk Pang Chin Hin, who passed away in November 2022. Mamee Monster is a crunchy noodle snack that made its debut in 1974 after Datuk Pang’s eldest son, MAMEE-Double Decker Executive Chairman Tan Sri Pang Tee Chew picked up on something while driving through the estates in Alor Gajah, Malacca–he noticed the rubber tappers were eating uncooked instant noodles straight from the pack. This led the Pang father-son duo to steer their noodle production in a new direction. They decided to pre-season the noodles before selling them, and that was the start ofone ofthe first Malaysia’s favourite snacks. Mamee Monster noodles became a hitnot justwith the youngsters but also with the adults, thanks to its rich flavour, strong marketing strategy and widespread availability.
“The Mamee Monster noodle snack has been the quintessential Malaysian childhood snack that has been spreading joy for decades, whether enjoyed as a snack at home, in school, at a party or on the go. We have the late Datuk Pang to thank for that and this Mamee Monster Retro Campaign is our way of paying tribute to him and celebrating his life, his creativity and many contributions,” said How Yuan Yi, Chief Marketing Officer of MAMEE-Double Decker.

“Mamee Monster wasone ofthe first of Datuk Pang’s creations and he also created other memorable childhood snacks such as Double Decker prawn crackers, Mister Potato chips and Corntoz corn snacks. We hope that the Mamee Monster Retro campaign will give our consumers a chance to relive their childhood. In fact, we’d like to bring back some of those great memoriesto share witheveryone and we’ll be rewarding consumers for that too,” she added.
