i use to working at bugis village 1st floor. as i know. 2nd floor are not so selltable. depends on wat product you are selling? as i know. got alot stall. really cant turnover. but 1st floor rental are more expansive. but as i know. now there are doing alot of ads and upgrading alot.

ALot of garment there are same. so if can find something different or special, maybe you can try one year contract ba. if you wan to know the market. maybe you should spend one or two weeks.go walk around and do marketing. see wat is the most people buying. and which time whichday are the most people going.

i've observed that clothes (especially taiwan/jap styles) don't sell that well since there are so many fashion shops, unless you sell really cheap. accessories must be cheap too. basically, most people go bugis to get good deals, so the only way you can profit is to sell many products at a lower price.

the buying sentiment is the same whether it's first or 2nd floor.
it's just that the amt of people is lesser than the first floor.

But for certain it's more spacious, less cramp as level one.
cust can try more easily, easiler to sell.

If you observe, lvl 1's path way is quite cramp,messy and mapped in grid form.
Meaning most customers will miss out alot of corners, unless you get a good spot.

However lvl 2 most shops are in the round shaped pathway. So custs will get to pass by most shops.

IMO lvl 2 can do.
The crowd whether lvl 1 or 2 is the same, are obviously teenager crowd.

Another thing regarding the sell at how price.

Say tee cost $2
Shop A sell cheap at $6 earn $4

Shop B sell more exp but still in the affordable range $12 earn $10.

For every 1 pc shop B sell, shop A must sell double.

I rather be shop B.

Actually all in all, price war is the stupidness thing.
A sell 10$, B sell $8 next, A sell $6 next untill both cannot take it.

Lose out is urself.
If someone wanna price war, just match his price will do.

BTW turn over rate is extremeeely high... better know what you are doing before you think of doing.

Those with mentality of just get some cheap stock from thai or wholesaler, plunge in at some locations.

I think you better hold back, you can't deal with situations.
Retail experience is not as easy as you think esp in places like bugis.
Few quick qns.
How to deal with backlog?
how to bring customers in n buy?
There's competition, wat to do?

These are just some common scenerios.
