The artist is a lecturer at LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore and her painting received the Gold award in the Established Artist Category in the 2018 UOB Painting of the Year (Singapore) competition.

  • Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Fashion and Accessories (Distribution Channels 2) | HKTDC
    29 Aug 2018 Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Fashion and Accessories (Distribution Channels 2) Concept stores, multi-brand stores and department stores, are the dominant distribution channels for fashion and accessories in major cities of ASEAN. Hong Kong fashion brands, designers and exporters may find the right distribution channels which match their product positioning to tap the opportunities in the region. For details of other distribution channels, please refer to “Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Fashion and Accessories (Distribution Channels 1)”. Department Stores ASEAN consumers have become more sophisticated and they demand unique products that resonate with their lifestyle. This has drawn consumers away from traditional department stores. Luxury fashion brands have taken matters into their own hand by opening their single-brand stores and limiting their wholesale offering to specialty retailers. This has further forced department stores to rethink their role and strategies amid the shift in fashion retail. Department stores’ biggest asset is their card members. Through customer loyalty programmes and good after-sale service, department stores cultivate and maintain strong relationship with these VIP members. For instance, the Mall Group, the top shopping malls developer and department store operator in Thailand, has more than 3 million members, of which 70% are active customers. Central also invites customers to join The 1 Card. This loyalty card programme offers a vast array of benefits, such as points for shopping, special promotions and offers that are dedicated to The 1 Card members. In addition, Central presents the exclusive Diamond Society Club for its loyal patrons. Diamond Society members have privileged services dedicated to them, with access to the Premiere Lounge, reserved parking, a personal assistant in-store, home and hotel delivery and exclusive invitations to special Central Department Store Indonesia events.

  • Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Watches and Clocks (Distribution Channels 1)
    3 Dec 2018 Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Watches and Clocks (Distribution Channels 1) The distribution channels for watches are diversified in ASEAN. Watch specialist retailers, department stores, and travel retailer/duty-free operators, are some major distribution channels for watches in different price bands. Aside from brick-and-mortar retailers, e- commerce channels, including brands’ own websites, third-party marketplaces, and social media, have quickly become a new force in the watch industry. Moreover, there is a private sale channel for watch collectors and enthusiasts. Watch Specialist Retailers Watch specialist retailers are shops that have a diversified brand portfolio. A watch specialist retailer usually has authorised retailer agreements with many watch brands. Amongst the brands, some are much stronger than others and even within a brand there are timepieces that are much more sought after than others. Retailers have to be smart about the brand mix in their stores as well as the pieces they stock from each brand. In ASEAN, international luxury watches brands, in particular Patek Philippe or Rolex, enjoy high brand awareness and regard from watch collectors and consumers alike. In the authorised retailer agreements with world-renowned brands, retailers are often required to adopt the store layouts and merchandise displays designed by the brands. In return, the brand owners offer subsidised advertising programmes, bonuses and special discounts. As authorised retailers are bound by pricing policy rules from brands, they normally cannot compete on price with unofficial channels. However, consumers purchasing watches from authorised retailers could enjoy the peace of mind that they are buying legitimate watches with official warranties.
