Meet the Founder

Hey, I'm Travin Tan.I'm happiest when I'm out hiking, camping, and exploring the outdoors. For me, food has always been one of the best parts of every adventure.After hours on the trail, nothing feels better than sitting down to a warm meal surrounded by nature.But the more time I spent outdoors, the more I realised that every gram matters when it's on your back.That really hit me during my 2019 expedition to Gunung Tahan, the highest peak in Peninsular Malaysia. I couldn't find an outdoor meal that was lightweight enough to carry, nutritious enough to keep me going, and comforting after a long day on the trail. (Back then, freeze-dried outdoor meals weren't readily available in Malaysia.)It left me with one simple question: Why can't outdoor meals be lightweight enough to carry and still taste like home?That question inspired me to create MOOVIN Outdoor Meals.

The Meals

Every MOOVIN outdoor meal starts with a heritage-inspired recipe. We combine the comforting flavours of home with real ingredients and balanced nutrition, creating lightweight meals that are made for the outdoors.

Why We Started MOOVIN

It all started with one hike.After my Gunung Tahan expedition, I knew there had to be a better way to enjoy real food on the trail.Discovering freeze-drying changed everything. Now, it's possible to create lightweight meals for the trail without sacrificing balanced nutrition or the comfort of a home-cooked meal.

Questions?

Freeze-drying removes almost all the water from freshly cooked food using very low temperatures and a vacuum. The result is a lightweight, shelf-stable meal that quickly returns to its original texture when hot water is added.
Both methods remove water to extend shelf life, but they work differently. Dehydration uses heat to remove moisture, changing the food's texture and flavour. Freeze-drying removes water at very low temperatures, helping preserve the food's original texture, flavour, and many nutrients. This results in better rehydration and tastes much closer to the original dish.
Freeze-drying is a slower and more energy-intensive process than traditional drying methods. At MOOVIN, every meal is handcrafted in small batches using real ingredients, so each pack takes time and care to produce.
It’s super simple:
1. Open the pouch and remove the oxygen absorber.
2. Add the recommended amount of boiling water.
3. Stir well, seal the pouch, and wait 10-12 minutes.
4. Stir again and enjoy a warm, home-style meal.
No! Every MOOVIN pouch is heat-safe and designed to stand upright, so you can simply add hot water and eat straight from the pouch. Less gear, no dishes, and easy cleanup. When you're done, reseal the pouch and carry it with you until you find a proper rubbish bin. Pack it in. Pack it out.
Yes! While hot water gives you that warm, comforting experience after a long day, you can rehydrate our meals with ambient-temperature water. Just give it extra time to soak through completely.
Unopened, MOOVIN outdoor meals have a shelf life of 12–24 months when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Our freeze-drying process removes over 98% of the moisture, allowing the meals to stay shelf-stable without refrigeration or artificial preservatives.
Not at the moment. MOOVIN is currently produced in a small home kitchen in Ipoh and is not Halal-certified. While some meals may not contain pork or alcohol, we cannot label them as Halal.
Yes. Our meals may contain peanuts, sesame, soy, wheat, and shellfish. Please check the ingredient list before ordering. If you have severe allergies, we recommend not consuming our meals due to possible cross-contact during preparation.
Not at all! MOOVIN outdoor meals are perfect for hiking, camping, travelling, road trips, busy workdays, or anytime you want a quick and nutritious meal.
