With the relaxation of Singapore’s Covid-19 border measures in 2022, business has picked up at stores in the airport’s transit and public areas, as well as on its iShopChangi online platform.This was given the near-absence of travellers from China, which was traditionally a major market for Changi Airport, CAG said.
CAG also attributed sales of about $411 million to an airportwide “Win With Changi” shopping promotion that ran from November 2021 to October 2022 and gave Changi Rewards members who spent at least $50 a chance to win prizes, including an all-electric Porsche Taycan. Ms Teo Chew Hoon, CAG’s managing director for airside concessions, said: “We reinvented ourselves during the pandemic and explored creative ways to engage our customers. We were also relentless in rolling out promotions and attractions.”
A spokesman for Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group, which has outlets at Terminal 1 and Jewel, said sales at the two stores surged in December 2022. As at end-2022, sales at the two outlets were close to pre-pandemic levels.
