Brick House Group consists of 3 different business verticals that all connects to one another. The Grounds which is an event space, POKOK which is a restaurant / café and DAUN, the little sister to POKOK. When the MCO took effect, all 3 of these businesses were forced to close and within days turned themselves into an online grocery delivery platform that can deliver your goods within hours! We speak to Datin Christine Bong, the Managing Director and Co-Founder of Brick House Group on how they managed to do this and keep their operations running.
