Overview
Tiny Forest SJ (often branded as Tiny Forest or Tiny Forest Store) is a Malaysian family-owned plant and terrarium business based in Subang Jaya, Selangor. Founded in 2014, it began as a combined terrarium and clothing store in the SS15 neighbourhood of Subang Jaya. The company describes itself as one of the first and pioneering terrarium businesses in Malaysia, bringing terrariums to local plant lovers. Over time it has evolved into a specialist in custom terrarium making, vivariums, and succulents and cactus planter decoration, while also offering workshops for corporate team building, private parties, school programmes, and small groups. The business operates primarily as an online store with hand-delivery service within Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley. Its product range includes ready-made terrariums such as the Greenhouse Closed Terrarium (RM210.00 MYR), Desert Scene Cuboid Terrarium (RM85.00 MYR), and plant-and-planter arrangements like the Succulent and Jade Plant in a Pink Ombre planter (RM95.00 MYR) and Monstera Adansonii in a Sunshine Planter (RM85.00 MYR). In 2019, Tiny Forest branched out as a plant store, selling popular indoor living plants such as Sansevierias, Pothos, and Philodendrons. In 2020, it transitioned to a fully online model with its own logistics team, and relocated to a new address on the same street in Subang Jaya, with its studio open only on certain hours and by appointment. Tiny Forest SJ serves individual plant enthusiasts as well as corporate clients, offering corporate gifts, corporate events, custom bulk terrarium orders for weddings and corporate events, and terrarium supplies. The company emphasises a sustainable business model and collaboration with other local terrarium and plant businesses, describing itself as part of a community of 'plantrepreneurs'. Its delivery area covers Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley, with items typically delivered within 3–4 working days to allow time to source healthy plants and prepare orders. The brand remains a private, family-owned enterprise with no public listing.
History
Tiny Forest SJ was established in 2014 in Subang Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia, initially operating as a combined terrarium and clothing store in the SS15 area. The founders, a family based in Subang Jaya, built the business around a passion for plants, home decor, succulents, and cacti arrangements. The company claims to be one of the first and pioneering terrarium businesses in Malaysia, introducing terrariums to local plant enthusiasts. In its early years, Tiny Forest focused on custom terrarium making, vivariums, and succulent and cactus planter decoration. It also began conducting workshops for small and large groups, including corporate team building programmes, private parties, school programmes, and gatherings of friends. As the business grew, it expanded its offerings to include corporate gifts, corporate events, custom bulk terrarium orders for weddings and corporate events, and terrarium supplies. In 2019, Tiny Forest branched out as a plant store, selling popular indoor living plants suitable for homes of all sizes, such as Sansevierias, Pothos, and Philodendrons. This marked a shift from a primarily terrarium-focused business to a broader plant retail operation. In 2020, the company transitioned to a fully online model, providing delivery service through its own logistics team, with all deliveries handled by hand. In February 2020, it relocated to another address on the same street in Subang Jaya, and its plant and terrarium studio began operating only during certain hours and by appointment. The company stated that its goal was to make plant and terrarium shopping easier for customers and to create a sustainable business model that is kinder to the environment. Throughout its history, Tiny Forest has emphasised collaboration with other terrarium and plant businesses in the area, describing itself as part of a community of 'plantrepreneurs' and expressing a belief in sharing the love for plants and nature. The business remains family-owned and operates primarily online, serving customers in Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley with hand-delivered orders.
