Case studies

HGD Testimonial - Edvin Chen

"We learnt a lot from the Visual Merchandising programme, especially in product display. It is easier for customers to browse our products and the retail space can comfortably accommodate more customers now. Our shop has become more attractive and potential customers who pass by are more willing to enter and check out what we offer.” (translated)

HGD - Joy Ng

“The best part of the programme is having a visual merchandising consultant to guide and assist me. While I can beautify my shop on my own, it is different from having someone specialised in this field to advise and impart new skills and knowledge to me.” (translated)
