Turning Crisis into Opportunity: How Doohlabs Empowers Retailers Amid Gas Supply Disruptions

The recent gas pipeline explosion in Putra Heights has not only disrupted daily life but also significantly impacted local businesses. With over 8,000 residential premises and 300 factories affected by the gas supply disruption, retailers are facing unprecedented challenges in maintaining operations and customer engagement.

The Challenge for Retailers

The gas supply interruption has led to production halts, supply chain disruptions, and decreased foot traffic in retail outlets. Traditional advertising methods are proving less effective in this crisis, necessitating innovative solutions to maintain customer engagement and drive sales.
