Job Description

  

Who We Are

We are TEDBOY (Uniqbe Bakery Sdn Bhd, one of the companies under Uniqbe Group of Companies) - a Malaysian halal certified bakery-café built on the belief that food should feel safe, reassuring, and thoughtfully made. For over 14 years, we’ve been baking and serving food we are proud to eat ourselves - the same food we serve our families every day.
 

From the beginning, we believed that care in food must be built on discipline, structure, and consistency.

What We Stand For

At TEDBOY, providing the best to our consumers is our priority from 2012. To us, that means putting our consumers first in every step of decision we make using thoughtful halal practices — not assumptions, shortcuts, or loud claims. Every decision we make is guided by care for the people we serve, from ingredient choices to how food is prepared and handled. We listen, we improve, and we take responsibility because trust is earned through consistency, not promises.
