Finally shifted out of Iluma. 1 burden down! All the stocks from Iluma are at home now. My house is looking more and more like a warehouse. Not thinking of opening another outlet as yet. Let Far East Plaza settle down first. Most probably once-in-a-while will rent event space/push cart for short period to sell some of our products and as a form of advertisement. Have got contacts to do events in John Little Expo Mega Sale, kiosk at 313 and maybe other places. It's amazing how God opens new windows/doors when He closes one.

Have got 3 mths of accounts (x 2 companies) to work on. And have got to clear the stocks from that supplier who has "Guo He Chai Qiao" with us. Not intending to work with him. How to work with this kind of person who never keep promises? Esp tees & shoes. He is the ONLY supplier who demanded us to pay 50% deposit before he will go ahead with the order processing & FULL payment is to be made before he deliver the stocks. The normal procedure for all our other suppliers is to pay before they deliver the stocks to us. Has he ever thought of how much we have bought from him in this 1 yr+++. The amount we bought from him this 1yr+++ is even MORE than that we bought from our franchise principal for the past 3yrs+++. Yet he is doing this to us! How smart of him to take the money he has earned from us as capital to open his own shop in Singapore and then refused to supply to us UNLESS we sell HIS brands at HIS price. $200+++ for a pair of shoes that we sell at $100+++??? Although it's handmade and all, but customers already find our price high. How are we going to sell at HIS price???
