Guardian People’s Choice Award 2016 Returns With An Exciting New Platform



The wait is finally over as the moment is here to announce the winners of the coveted Guardian People’s Choice Award (PCA) 2016! In conjunction with Guardian’s 49th Anniversary celebration, Guardian PCA 2016 brings the crème de la crème of brands under one roof as it awards them for their amazing products ranging from personal care and cosmetics to health care and confectionery. The big smiles of victory as you can see real clearly from the happy faces of the winners for this victorious picture. 


The aim of the People’s Choice Awards was to award those who went above and beyond for product innovation and quality, while providing a platform for the consumers to voice out their favourites amongst the many brands in the market. Aside from rewarding recognition to the best brands and products in Malaysia, the competition also helps improve integrity for their brands as brand owners are constantly keeping up with evolving needs of customers. 


Last minute only I decided to drive on my own using waze & paid RM2 toll for stress-free no-jam route to attend this much-awaited Guardian yearly event and I was glad I did. My driver and beloved bodyguard had to be in JB for bigger projects than mine so I need to stay independent once in awhile, skip the diva VIP treatment especially when it comes to Guardian Health, Beauty and Wellness event that played an important role for my health related blog splendidly. 


“Since its first edition in 2001, The People’s Choice Awards has maintained its objective of acknowledging brands that are constantly developing amazing products that caters to our everyday needs. What started out as a platform for unbiased brand valuation by customers has now grown to become a trusted guide to quality brands.The success of these brands has helped foster our reputation as one of the main retail pharmacies in Malaysia.” said Ms. Anna Hull, Merchandise Director for Guardian Health & Beauty.


The night was definitely a merry affair as major companies and friends of Guardian had the time of their lives. Guests were treated with a scrumptious feast, special performances and even chances to bring more prizes home with a lucky draw! Initiating the glamorous night was the opening performance by the talented electric violinist Dennis Lau, who awed the audience with his musical skill and grace. Heavyweights of the health, beauty, and pharmaceutical industry received appreciation for their most popular products, where category winners took home the sought after Guardian PCA trophy.


Aside from awarding the People’s Choice Awards to the respective winners, leading brands were saluted for their outstanding success with the Guardian’s Special Recognition award. GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Sdn. Bhd. proved to be the contender of the year, and was given the nod for Best Supplier for Personal Care as well as the grand title of Best Overall Supplier. Taking home the Best Supplier for Health title is Abbott Laboratories (M) Sdn Bhd, known for providing the best range of nutritional supplements in the market. The Best Supplier for Beauty award went to the brand that proved to be the undefeated household name, Ginvera Marketing Ent.Sdn.Bhd. Remaining fresh in people’s minds and hearts, the Best Innovation title went to Reckitt Benckiser (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. for Dettol.


 Running its 16thedition this year, Guardian solidifies its status as the leading pharmacy, health and beauty retail chain in Malaysia by introducing a new online-based voting system for the People’s Choice Awards.
