Who Was At Bridex?

As most of you know, the 6th Consumer Fair Brunei Darussalam was held recently at the Bridex Hall in Jerudong. I've always loved to go to these fairs as there are all sorts of products available that you don't normally come across.

 

This year, some of our local online stores had participated in the 6th Consumer Fair, which is a big step into marketing their presence. If you had missed the Consumer Fair and so, missed out on the chance of seeing what our local e-stores have to offer, the following are a brief introduction to those who had participated. :)

 

Dot Dot's Little Shop

Dot Dot's Little Shop

This online store needs little introduction as she has been featured here on this site last month.

 

Dot Dot's Little Shop is the leading online store in Brunei specializing in motherhood and breastfeeding products. Moe is the lovely lady behind the store, whose goal is to educate all mothers on the importance of breastfeeding.

Although I had missed out her booth, many had the opportunity to see, first-hand, what the store has to offer. If you are a new mother or soon-to-be mum, check out the store's Facebook page to join the women who are asking for advice and tips.

 

FES Retro

For the football female fans out there, you may have been one of those who had contributed to FES Retro's sold out Liverpool merchandise!

 

FES Retro collaborated with the Liverpool Supporters Club for this 6th Consumer Fair to bring Liverpool merchandise and offer opportunities to sign up for the club to hang out with fellow Liverpool fans.

 

Although only Liverpool merchandise were available at their booth, a variety of other football teams jerseys and soccer memorabilia are available at this store in Kg Lambak (London Kebab Casbah). You can also visit their Facebook profile.

 

Love Perfume

Polkadots Brunei

Polkadots Brunei

This Facebook store showcases the cutest little outfits and shoes for little girls. Take a look at the albums and you just can't help 'Awww'-ing at the pictures just like I did!

 

The 6th Consumer Fair at Bridex Hall is Polkadots Brunei's first showcase to the public and had attracted new customers with the adorable outfits. Just take a look at the new arrivals! So cute!

 

Stuff Forsale

Stuff Forsale

Looking for chiffon kains? Accessories? Bags? Check out Stuff Forsale's collection. I've been checking out their Accessories Facebook album and am loving the pieces from UK.

 

For kain lovers, check out their Clearance album and you can find some lovely pieces at bargain prices. So, hurry snap these up before they're all gone!

 

It's really great to have the chance to meet these e-stores in person. Fairs, like the Consumer Fair, allows aspiring e-business people to increase awareness of online shopping.

 

In this day and age, online shopping is not a dodgy thing anymore. And the above online blogshops, through participating in Fairs, show to the public that these stores are run by real people. This is sure to help boost the public's confidence in our local e-tailers.

 

So, to those mentioned in this post, hope to see more of you in future fairs!
