Soap Opera Productions opens its first Honeybunch Handmade store in Hong Kong

The new retail storeat Aberdeen Street in Central offers New Zealand handmade soaps, bodycare products as well as flower bouquets. According to the Managing Director, Mrs Lisa Jolly, Soap Opera Productions has been developing soap products for a Chinese retailer starting with only one store and now having over 20 stores in Mainland China.

She said, “Through this business partnership, we gained the know-how and expertise in developing soap products that are suitable for the Chinese market, therefore we decided to launch our own brand in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is an international city famous for its breadth of retail choices.

It gives new brands great exposure to residents, business traders and visitors. It is the best place from which to promote our New Zealand handmade gift and floral concepts to the world.”

She added, “I am impressed with Hong Kong’s fabulous logistic services. It offers exciting opportunities for us to extend our customer reach beyond Hong Kong through e-commerce.

Our online store supports delivery to worldwide customers.”

The Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion, Dr Jimmy Chiang, said, “Being a free port and logistics hub, Hong Kong is able to efficiently support both online and offline business operations. It offers tremendous opportunities to companies that use Hong Kong as their sales and distribution centre in Asia. Soap Opera Productions has extended its business model from a manufacturer to a retailer and we are happy that the company has chosen Hong Kong as its first overseas location.

We wish the company every success in Hong Kong.”
