Inspired by the European market, the ‘MAKE-UP MARKET’ of Espoir brings a feeling of a colorful  interior to the actual food market.

Additionally, they provide free stamps, ribbons, etc. in the self-packing zone so that customers can freely wrap their own products when they have finished all their purchases.

There is a tasting zone in the market  so that anyone who visits the store can test the best-selling products of Espoir. There is also a flea market zone on the first floor and the basement floor for best-selling items at special price.

In this concept store, pre-sales promotions that were only offered online will be carried out in the off-line store alone so that customers can experience new more quickly than anyone else.
