Alexandra Retail Centre-L1 Atrium
 

I saw some advertisement regarding bazaar at the above location. Can anyone here who have participated before shed some light on the place/crowd and sales potential?
Thanks in advance.

flea Asia 2012 - check under bazaars (retail resources)
wonder if this is the first time bazaars are held there? if not, appreciate anyone who can give some feedback on the response.

Had a booth there during their 1st bazaar @ ARC, thought rental rate was affordable n will have good sales potential with the office crowd. But it was rather disappointing as the crowd there are mainly browsers. Buyers are expecting to get cheap deals. Expect sales only between 12-1.30PM and a few wondering souls throughout the day. Evening after 6PM will be dead quiet as well...you'll be lucky to catch a few sales. Don't even think about weekends as that place is a ghost town without the office crowd....tho there are shuttle services from Vivo but there are no attractions for shoppers to travel there, when there's plenty to shop @ vivo already. Most vendors shared the same sentiment as well n will think twice before returning for the next bazaar. Organiser was quite helpful & tried to draw the crowd in with music but didn't help much. Earn just enuf to cover my rental but the imo it's a waste of time n not productive at all.

there's a glass roof above the atrium with afternoon sun shining on your booth too:yippee: you can give it a try if u have time to spare sitting around but do not expect much ROI.

thanks babebe for your advice. if it depends on office crowd only then definitely will be quite tough

Re: Alexandra Retail Centre-L1 Atrium
 

most welcome tinkywinky! It's definitely an office crowd zone...if u do take up a booth there, do share ur experience here too:)

Nowadays office crowd no buying power or they're not interested to shop during lunch time.
