ThreeSixty Marketplace

By Lim Wen Qin, Senior Year RMT student

Brace yourselves for the newest kid on the block! Encompassing a wonderful fusion of organic and gourmet product, ThreeSixty Marketplace is sure to be the new must-go location for patrons of fine dining. Located on the 4^th floor of Ion Orchard, the newest addition to the Cold Storage Family indeed raises the standards of comfort in shopping. 

Intrigued by the talk going around, I decided to pay the retailer a visit. Even before stepping into the supermarket, I was surprised by the window display! Staying true to its commitment of being Hong Kong’s largest organic and natural food store, decals of leaves is pasted on the walls, adding an eco-friendly touch to the retailer. Basking in the Christmas mood, decorations are put up on the signage and fixtures, much resembling those of European supermarkets. Playing with the different shades of brown for the interior environment further accentuates the natural concept, inviting customers to enjoy in the moment of shopping. 

 

Instead of looking for that specific coffee jar or that particular bag of chips, you’ll be tempted to tour around the store, admiring the extensive breadth and assortment of products. Iberico ham, ZaraMama popcorn and live oysters flown in from Coromandel, brands that used to be unavailable in Singapore can now be found there.

Heads up, chocolate lovers, Valhrona’s first store-within-a-store in Asia is coming to town in this supermarket. Think that’s all? Wait till you check out the wine corner. Assembled in a circular manner (representing 360 degrees), you’ll be spoilt for choice.

Fancy a kiss? The brand display by Faucon, Paris certainly brings in an air of romance.     

As they all say, seeing is believing. So the next time you need to clear your shopping list, why not try a change in environment for a while?
