Because of lengthy and complicated regulation compliance, changing raw material prices, and multifaceted supply chain problems, Johor Bahru local producers need to be highly cautious. The truth is, all these obstacles are indeed the factors that necessitate the development of strong strategies for keeping the firms competitive in the market. Besides this, the entire industry is affected by such issues as technology advancement and lack of workforce that overlap with the questions of this particular sector; therefore, the finding of solutions is very complex.
