The business is in the midst of an investment drive in Singapore, expanding two major suburban stores and opening new airport outlets as it strengthens its presence across the city-state.
The Japanese apparel retailer will increase the retail space of its Northpoint City and Nex stores by 70 per cent, while extending its reach to Changi Airport with new transit retail formats.
“Our stores are our biggest branding assets. They are where customers can experience LifeWear at its fullest, through our products, services and the way each space is designed around their everyday needs,” said Naoki Kamogawa, CEO of Uniqlo Singapore. “As we renew and expand our stores in Singapore, our focus is not simply on creating larger spaces, but on building better stores that serve their communities, showcase the value of LifeWear more strongly and make shopping easier and more enjoyable for every customer.”
The Northpoint City outlet will reopen on 6 November, making it Uniqlo’s largest location in northern Singapore. The expansion includes a wheelchair-accessible lift, scheduled to open in January and a locally inspired mural by illustrator Kaw Fong.
