According to Harvey Norman’s managing director for Singapore and Malaysia, Kenneth Aruldoss, the group is creating a revolution in the way customers connect with products and brands.
“Consumers of today are changing — and therefore we have to change the way we do retail as well.
“It is a first-of-its-kind shopping experience with a huge range of merchandises spread over two levels of retail space. The range is current and of the latest,” he said in his speech during the official launch today.
Also present during the launch were Assistant Minister of E-Commerce Datuk Mohd Naroden Majais, Kuching South City mayor (MBKS) Datuk James Chan, Vivacity Megamall executive director Sim Yaw Hang and Vivacity Megamall director Alan Sim, as well as other officials from Harvey Norman.
