Beam Mobility has launched its central warehouse in Subang Jaya, Selangor, to support its growing operations in Malaysia. The 8,000 square feet central warehouse will provide a steady supply of fully charged batteries and other hardware maintenance to Beam’s fleet of e-scooters in Selangor.

Beam’s existing warehouse network serves as the main distribution, repair, and hardware testing hub in Malaysia, ensuring that its fleet of e-scooters is in tip-top condition and safe for use. With full-time staff, including technicians and supervisors, Beam’s central warehouse will efficiently support its growing footprint in Malaysia.

The company operates in several cities in Malaysia, including Kuala Lumpur, Ampang Jaya, Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, Kuantan, and Langkawi, and is committed to bringing safe and fun micromobility sharing services to different communities.

“We are committed to continuous investments in Malaysia. Our central warehouse enables us to have an efficient supply chain for our services and continue creating job opportunities, especially in the gig economy. We look forward to expanding our operations and serving Malaysians with dependable, alternative transport modes,” said Justin Tiew, General Manager of Beam Mobility Malaysia.

Each e-scooter is embedded with a GPS-tracking Internet of Things (IoT) device, allowing Beam to track each vehicle’s systems and alert its team when an e-scooter requires maintenance. These efforts ensure that Beam’s fleet of e-scooters is safe and meets the authorities’ standards for safety.

The Central Warehouse aligns with Beam’s commitment to its ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) efforts. In the event of unusable parts during repair work, Beam will actively source reliable partners to safely and appropriately recycle these parts to reduce waste.

Beam has been a certified Climate Neutral operator since 2019 and has pledged to become Climate Negative by 2025 through strategic partnerships with like-minded organizations, thorough research, and better practices to be kinder to the planet. Beam’s Central Warehouse supports its ESG efforts, ensuring that it provides sustainable and responsible micromobility services to Malaysians.
