KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 July 2026 – NITORI Malaysia and Alpro Group have entered a strategic collaboration under the shared theme of “Healthy Living Starts at Home”, combining NITORI’s expertise in supportive living environments with Alpro’s focus on preventive healthcare and community wellness.
Founded in Japan, NITORI is one of Asia’s leading home furnishing and lifestyle retailers, known for offering functional, thoughtfully designed, and quality products that enhance everyday living. Meanwhile, Alpro Group is one of Malaysia’s leading integrated healthcare groups with more than 300 touchpoints nationwide, focusing on preventive healthcare, personalized health support, and accessible healthcare solutions for Malaysian families.
The collaboration reflects a shared belief that health is not limited to medical treatment alone, but also begins with the environment people live in every day, including sleep quality, comfort, hygiene, stress management, and daily lifestyle habits.
As the first phase of the collaboration, both parties will focus on the growing topic of sleep health, in response to increasing concerns surrounding poor sleep quality and mental wellbeing among Malaysians.
According to findings from the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) 2023, approximately 2 in 5 Malaysians do not get enough sleep daily, while studies among Malaysian working adults reported that more than 50% sleep less than the recommended 7 hours per night. Sleep deprivation and poor sleep quality have also been associated with stress, anxiety, fatigue, poor concentration, emotional burnout, and long-term health risks such as cardiovascular disease and depression.
Through this collaboration, Alpro will focus on preventive healthcare education, sleep health awareness, and professional guidance, while NITORI Malaysia introduces supportive home living solutions designed to improve sleep comfort, sleep hygiene, and overall living quality. An additional key element of the collaboration will involve support from Alpro Health, the corporate wellness arm of Alpro Group, which includes access to clinical psychology expertise, mental wellness screening initiatives, and preventive health education programs to further strengthen public awareness surrounding stress, emotional wellbeing, and sleep health.
Building on these combined efforts, both parties are also exploring sleep health workshops, educational initiatives, and community engagement activities aimed at increasing public awareness on the importance of quality sleep and healthy living environments.
Mr. Maezawa Yuta, Country Store Manager of NITORI Malaysia, shared:
“At NITORI, we believe that quality living begins at home. Through this collaboration with Alpro, we hope to support Malaysian families not only through functional and quality home products, but also by encouraging healthier lifestyle habits and starting with greater awareness on the importance of sleep and wellbeing.”
Ph. Lim En Ni, Chief Pharmacist & Customer Engagement Director of Alpro Group, said:
“Many Malaysians underestimate the impact of sleep on physical health, emotional wellbeing, and overall quality of life. Preventive healthcare is not only about treatment, it is also about creating healthier daily habits and environments. Through this collaboration with NITORI, we hope to make supportive living solutions and sleep health awareness more accessible to communities nationwide.”
This collaboration reinforces Alpro’s long-term commitment to preventive healthcare by empowering Malaysians with better health awareness, early intervention, and healthier lifestyle habits. At the same time, it reflects NITORI Malaysia’s philosophy of enhancing everyday life through functional home solutions that support comfort, quality, and overall wellbeing.
Moving forward, both organisations aim to progressively expand the collaboration into broader healthy living categories and customer engagement initiatives. Together, NITORI Malaysia and Alpro Group believe that healthier living begins with a better home environment because true “Healthy Living Starts at Home”.
