MYDIN was founded in August 1957 by the late Tuan Mydin Mohamed in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. The first shop was a small wooden shop in Jalan Tok Hakim, Kota Bharu namely Syarikat Mydin Mohamed started the business by selling toys and general goods.
With the help of his children, he expanded the business in Kuala Terengganu in 1979 and later marked a step further by the opening of its’ first branch in Klang Valley at Jalan Masjid India in 1989.
