Celcom has always been committed to provide SMEs with the best solutions to help them excel at their businesses. SMEs typically operate with limited resources thus a powerful wireless telecommunications platform is crucial for their daily business operations. With Celcom’s unbeatable network, it will help boost their business performance by increasing overall productivity with instantaneous information deliverance. 

Celcom understands that each company’s business requirement is unique and the nature of their business often requires customised mobile solutions, which is why it has teamed up with Hadhari Agro to provide its M2M solutions. 

With this agreement, mobile terminals which enable payments and orders to be done in real time, will be deployed for each mobile entrepreneur transporting halal meat to customers and taking supplies. The terminals will also be deployed at meat shops and district distributors nationwide. The vehicle tracking system will allow HAHSB to monitor its trucks’ locations at all times, thus, ensuring the supplies of the halal meat reach customers on time.
