Margins are supported by disciplined operational practices, including quarterly menu refreshes to replace underperforming items, and waste kept at around 7% through tightly managed inventory control. Nearly all outlets are halal-certified.

• RM79.1 million (51.8%) — new outlet expansion
• RM52.1 million (34.1%) — working capital
• RM12.6 million (8.3%) — upgrading and refurbishing existing outlets
• Remainder — listing expenses

💡 How to Increase Your Chances of Getting This IPO?

For popular retail IPOs, allocation is often oversubscribed — meaning demand exceeds supply.
One way savvy investors increase their chances is through IPO financing (IPO leverage).

Using IPO Financing leverage, you can apply for a larger number of shares with financing from  M+ Global. If the IPO is successful, you only pay for the shares you’re allotted, but your effective subscription amount is multiplied, giving you a higher chance of allocation.

✅ Example:
You apply RM100,000 with 10x IPO financing → total subscription RM1,000,000.

If the IPO is oversubscribed 10x, your chances of getting a portion are significantly better than someone applying RM3,000 in cash.
With Foodie Media’s popularity, IPO leverage could make the difference between getting shares or missing out.
