DXN Holdings Bhd Recognised As Regional Social Impact Leader At ESG PLUS Awards 2025
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 15 (Bernama) -- DXN Holdings Bhd (DXN), a leading global nutraceutical manufacturer, has been named as the winner of the Social Category Award at The Exchange Asia ESG PLUS Awards 2025.
The company, in a statement today, said the recognition reflects its long-standing commitment to empowering communities, advancing social inclusion and supporting long-term societal well-being across the markets in which it operates.
DXN founder and executive chairman, Datuk Lim Siow Jin, said the company's philosophy has always been to inspire health, dignity and opportunity for every individual who comes into contact with their work.
He said the award was a meaningful recognition of the many communities, volunteers, partners and DXN members who have walked this journey with the company.
“We believe true social impact is created when compassion is translated into action and when people are empowered to improve their own lives.
“This Award motivates us to expand our efforts further, so that our work continues to bring tangible change to families and communities around the world,” he said.
The Exchange Asia ESG PLUS Awards celebrate organisations that demonstrate measurable progress and leadership in the areas of Environment, Social and Governance, and the recognition reflects DXN’s sustained commitment to fostering a compassionate and inclusive global society grounded in wellness, education, dignity and empowerment.
“DXN’s strong showing in the Social Category also reflects its deep commitment to safeguarding the rights and well-being of its global workforce.
“As part of its ongoing human rights journey, the company has introduced enhanced worker engagement and protection mechanisms designed to ensure transparency, dignity and respect for all workers across its operations,” the statement read.
DXN said that the initiative underscores its belief that listening to workers was essential to building ethical, resilient and future-ready supply chains, and it also aligns with international labour standards and complements DXN’s broader ESG commitments.
DXN’s performance in the Social Category reflects its structured ESG strategy and its commitment to creating long-term positive impact for communities worldwide.
It added that the company will continue strengthening its social initiatives, expanding global partnerships and driving responsible value creation across all markets in which it operates.
Meanwhile, DXN said that its social impact initiatives span a wide spectrum, including poverty alleviation, education support, healthcare access, nutrition programmes and global mindfulness development.
Central to these efforts is the belief that businesses have a responsibility to uplift society while creating sustainable value, it said.
In the financial year ended Feb 28 2023 (FY2023), DXN channelled more than RM5.3 million into community programmes, followed by RM11.9 million in the following year, enabling meaningful outreach through partnerships with Yayasan Prihatin, public institutions such as Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) and regional community networks.
DXN promotes children’s health through its One Dollar One Child (ODOC) campaign, supporting undernourished children with health check-ups, nutrition guidance and medical care across Malaysia, India, and other countries by June 2025.
In Malaysia, the company partners with government-linked and charitable organisations to deliver impact through initiatives like Malaysia MADANI, MYGrocer mobile markets, school programs and a RM3.5 million donation to UTAR for an Ayurvedic clinic that advances holistic healthcare.
