Decathlon To Open First Megastore In Singapore
Decathlon SA, the global sports equipment and apparel retailer has recently opened its flagship store here in Singapore in Technopark@Chai Chee.
The 35,000 square feet store provides 95,000 footwear, apparel and equipment products for men, women and kids from over 50 different sports, under the company’s 20 in-house brands, and is also the only store that provides the largest collection of sports equipment and apparel under one roof in Southeast Asia.
The store also contains various areas that will allow customers to try out Decathlon products before they purchase, including testing zones, where customers can try out sports and activities such as table tennis, mini golf, cycling and the trampoline. The store even features its own bicycle repair workshop, where Decathlon customers can bring in their bike (of any brand) to be repaired. Outside, Decathlon has developed a playground and basketball court that is open everyday, seven days a week and is free of charge. The store will stock over 95,000 items, including the hugely popular OXELO Town 9 Easyfold Scooter that is perfect for Singapore’s flat roads and pavements, the TRIBORD Easybreath Mask that allows snorkelers to breathe through their nose underwater, as well as equipment and apparel from over 50 sports.
The store will join the existing e-commerce site that has been available in Singapore since 2012, and will feature a ‘pick-up point’, from where Decathlon customers may purchase online and pick up their goods at the store quickly and easily, providing both an offline and online experience for customers.
The Decathlon store is open daily from 9.00am to 10.00pm (closing on select Public Holidays) and is located on Ground Level of Technopark@Chai Chee (TPCC), 750A Chai Chee Road.
