A new shopping carnival called Sands Shopping Carnival, to be held at the Venetian Macau by Sands China, is set to launch next month to offer a boost to the local retail market.
The carnival, which is being co-organised by the Macau Chamber of Commerce, the promotion will set aside some 500 free booths for local small and medium enterprises and Sands retailers to promote their products. Alongside shopping, the upcoming festival will highlight an international cuisine zone, shows, lucky draws and activities for children.
“With this three-day, large-scale sale event, we hope to provide a free business platform for local SMEs and Sands retailers to gain more business opportunities,” said Wilfred Wong, President of Sands China. “I am convinced that by bringing together international retail brands and local SMEs in the same venue, we can create huge synergistic effects that will help foster domestic consumption, thereby contributing to the gradual recovery of Macao’s economy,” Wong said.
The shopping event, which is free for all attendees, is scheduled to launch on 7 August with strict safety measures.
