About Us

Our Vision & Mission

Dale & Cecil was founded in 2015. It is widely accepted that the prevalence of food allergy & intolerance has been increasing in recent decades. The Centers for Disease Control Prevention report that between 1997 and 2011, food allergy prevalence among children has increased by 50%. (4)

According to statistics from the United States, approximately 15 million people, including 5.9 million children under the age of 18 suffer from food allergies. That’s 1 in 13 children, or roughly 2 in every classroom, at the same time about 30 percent of children with food allergies are allergic to more than one food. (1,2,3) 

The name “Dale & Cecil” was inspired by the founder of Dale & Cecil’s very own two children – Daniel & Cecil. Unfortunately, Cecil was discovered to be severely allergic to few of the major allergens including dairy, soy, & nuts. Seeing a cute and smart girl like Cecil suffers from food allergies has inspired her father to use his expertise to formulate a natural yet highly nutritious beverage as a replacement for milk.

MIWAKO® , an original formula by the founder of Dale & Cecil that is natural, yummy, and has no added lactose, dairy, soy, and gluten. With raw materials imported from several countries such as France and Belgium, MIWAKO®  was starting to gain popularity throughout Malaysia.

Today, MIWAKO®  can be seen throughout Malaysia including numerous Organic Health Stores, Pharmacies, Baby Shops, and Hypermarkets. 

Our mission with Dale & Cecil has not and will not change, as it has been deeply ingrained in our culture.
