Malaysia’s Largest Home Improvement Retailer Commits 5,430 Sq. Ft. at KM241 Southbound


We are excited to welcome MR. D.I.Y., Malaysia’s most trusted and dominant home improvement brand, to EVCC™ PEDAS RSA — the nation’s first Platinum-certified, privately operated EV charging hub.


With a committed space of 5,430 sq. ft., MR. D.I.Y. will be one of the largest anchor retail tenants within the development. This signals a new era of destination-driven retail — where modern highway infrastructure meets everyday convenience, serving not just motorists, but also the dynamic communities surrounding Pedas and Rembau.



A National Brand with Regional Reach


MR. D.I.Y. has grown from a single store in Kuala Lumpur in 2005 to over 1,200 outlets across Malaysia, making it the largest home improvement retailer in the country — and one of the most successful retail expansions in Southeast Asia. The brand has also expanded across Brunei, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines, Cambodia, and India, proving its strength beyond borders.


Built on the promise of "Always Low Prices", MR. D.I.Y. is widely respected for its ability to deliver value, accessibility, and scale. The brand attracts a diverse customer base — from homeowners and students to contractors and business operators — looking for quality products across a variety of categories. Its signature store format is efficient, neatly organized, and constantly evolving to reflect local demand.



One-Stop Convenience, MR. D.I.Y. Style


At EVCC PEDAS RSA, the MR. D.I.Y. store will offer a comprehensive product mix tailored for both highway travellers and local users. Shoppers can expect:

  • Hardware and Car Accessories for emergency repairs, upgrades, and travel kits

  • Electrical and Electronic Products, including power banks, chargers, and lighting

  • Household Items and Home Furnishing Essentials for daily convenience

  • Toys, Gardening Tools, and Sports Equipment for families on the go

  • Garments, Gifts, and Ladies’ Accessories for lifestyle needs

  • Stationery, Office Supplies, and practical work essentials

  • Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) including snacks, toiletries, and personal care

  • DIY Tools and Related Accessories — true to the brand’s core identity


Whether it’s a commuter looking for a car phone holder, a student picking up affordable stationery, or a local family restocking their household essentials, MR. D.I.Y. ensures everything is convenient, affordable, and accessible — 7 days a week.



Strategically Positioned for Everyday Reach

Located at KM241 (Southbound) of the PLUS Expressway and just 1 km before the Pedas-Linggi exit (Exit 223), EVCC PEDAS RSA is ideally placed to serve long-distance travellers and local communities alike. The RSA enjoys dual access: one via the expressway and another through a JKR-reserved local road connecting to Taman Pinggiran Pedas.


This unlocks a powerful hybrid market consisting of:


  • Over 110,000 projected daily vehicles by 2035

  • A catchment of 400,000+ residents across Rembau, Pedas, and Seremban

  • High weekday activity from nearby institutions like ILP Pedas, UiTM Rembau, and major manufacturing hubs like Nestlé MILO (the world’s largest MILO plant)


This dual-market positioning means MR. D.I.Y. won’t just serve passers-by — it will be a daily convenience destination for surrounding communities, from small businesses and tradesmen to students and families.



Redefining the Role of Retail in Rest Stops


MR. D.I.Y.’s entry into EVCC PEDAS RSA is more than a tenancy — it’s a strategic alignment. EVCC is reimagining the Rest & Service Area (RSA) concept by integrating ESG-aligned infrastructure with curated, relevant retail. This isn’t just about charging EVs or grabbing a quick snack — it’s about creating a smarter, more lifestyle-oriented highway environment.


For MR. D.I.Y., this marks an opportunity to embed its brand in a high-visibility, high-traffic site that supports both long-haul mobility and everyday commerce. For EVCC, it means anchoring the site with a brand that is trusted, value-driven, and deeply connected to Malaysia’s evolving consumer needs.
