Top 10 reasons the Sentosa Boardwalk Bazaar is a perfect flea market for serious entrepreneurs.

  1.  You can conduct your online sales and marketing activities and meet your customers at the bazaar
  2. You can conduct your face to face marketing at the bazaar.
  3. The Sentosa Boardwalk Bazaar operates every Saturdays and Sundays, rain or shine.
  4. The footfall: average 17,000 on a weekend (morning 9 am to 10 pm at night) coming and going when the weather is fine. On weekends when it rains, it will be lesser.
  5. The demographics: Tourists - International, locals – families with infant, toddlers and pre-teen children, groups of friends, late teens, dating couples, expatriates with families, other foreign nationals living and working in Singapore.
  6. The crowd patterns: Varies. On some days we may get 60% tourists, 40% locals (cruise ships docked at Harbourfront), some days we get 70% locals (due to major events happening in Sentosa) 30% tourists, and some days 50% - 50%.
  7. Weather pattern: Tropical – sometimes it rains then it stops. Sometimes it rains longer than expected. Sometimes it’s hot, and sometimes it’s nice and cool. Usually windy.
  8. Products that move: Fashion, ladies and gentlemen accessories, gadgets, knick knacks, toys, interesting pre-packed snacks.
  9. Prices of products that sell that indicate buying power: $0.50 to $50
  10. We highly recommend you conduct your own research to decide for yourself if people will buy what you intend to sell, or if you intend to sell what people want to buy, or have a mix of products of both what you want to sell and what people want to buy, at prices that both you and your customers can agree on.
