Rice Price Malaysia 2026

National average: RM36.64 per 10kg

Imported Super rice (Beras Super Cap Rambutan, 5% broken), 10kg bag, compared across major chains.

At a Glance

  • • Cheapest chain: TF Value-Mart — RM35.08/10kg
  • • Most expensive chain: Hero Market — RM39.11/10kg (11% more than TF Value-Mart)
  • • Last month: up 0.5% from Jun 26

This tracks imported Super-grade rice — the most common everyday rice sold in Malaysian supermarkets, distinct from local-grown and government-subsidised Beras SST (which is separately price-controlled and not covered in this comparison). Import rice prices move with global rice markets and the Ringgit, which is why this item shows more genuine price movement over time than the price-controlled staples on this site.

FAQ — Rice Price Malaysia

How much is a 10kg bag of rice in Malaysia?
The national average is RM36.64 for a 10kg bag of imported Super rice (Beras Super Cap Rambutan, 5% broken), based on 397 price surveys across Malaysia (2026-07-10 to 2026-07-16). TF Value-Mart is currently the cheapest chain at RM35.08.
Is this the same as subsidised local rice (Beras SST)?
No. This tracks imported Super-grade rice, sold at market price. Malaysia's subsidised local rice (Beras SST, Beras Tempatan) is a separate, price-controlled product not included in this comparison — it typically costs less but is subject to purchase limits and availability constraints.
Why does rice price fluctuate more than sugar or cooking oil?
Imported rice isn't price-controlled the way cooking oil and sugar are — it moves with global rice export prices (largely set by major exporters like India, Vietnam, and Thailand) and the Ringgit's exchange rate, so genuine month-to-month price movement is expected here.
Where does this rice price data come from?
PriceCatcher, an open dataset published by Malaysia's Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (data.gov.my). It's independently collected government data, not a retailer's advertised price or a Shopee listing.
