Hi, thanks for the info tiger but we are not looking into pushcarts now. But if i am not wrong, according to my previous enquiry they are asking for a 10%-15% of your total sales cut for bugis junction pushcart.

Maybe you help lookout and ask around for event bazaar location or even a good place to held carnival.....

Any other suggestions for location?
i'm refering to the outdoor area in between "marquee"/oosters (not sure if i spelt it correctly) and ya kun kaya toast, think it's "metal gate". there is usually a crowd during weekday lunch time. weekend may draw tourists, depending on tourist buses.

there's another outdoor area near zhou restaurant (opposite the previous fitness first). but seldom got people walk there, and besides, there's construction going on at the roads facing that area.

i dun have the contact of the management. but it's under far east square is under far east organisation.

hi christinewsy, organising an event at your place is not a bad idea because you set the environment up to suit your products! As you have space issues, maybe you can have it held at a friend's place. But you must first have a pool of loyal customers who would be willing to make the trip down to your place, otherwise, only a handful of curious people would go. Even free food won't attract that many, unless it's good stuff like bakerzin's cakes, sakae sushi, etc :P

thanks for the davise, and i am aware of such situation whereby customers may not turn up even though you invited them, thus i am not considering to held at my own place. i stay with my parents as well, to set the environment to suit my product is not quite possible. As my sis already sold her condo due to high property market price.
After much consideration i decide to do the commerical space event instead.

actually i would agree with christinewsy to do commercial-space-event instead.

if you holding such fairs at your place -- may have to cater food and drinks, clean up your place after the fair.. and may even have customers stealing from your house! :S
