THE HIVE CONCEPT STORE

A lot of Concept Stores in sprouting around the Queen City of the South but also in different parts of the Philippines. So what is a Concept Store? According to Unibox.co.uk, a concept store is a place where new ideas are put together in a bid to enhance the shopper experience and sell more stuff. 

Here are other information too from the said website:

Concept stores often mix an eclectic assortment of products and lines such as books, beauty, fashion, food, and homewares; all carefully curated to appeal to a specific target audience. In addition, many concept stores offer experimental elements such as a café or exhibition space, enhancing their appeal to those shoppers seeking a particular lifestyle.

However, while concept stores are designed to engage, they shouldn’t be confused with flagship stores. Creating multi-sensory shopping experiences, flagship stores combine aesthetic and interactive elements, making them a destination venue in their own right. Ultimately, flagships are primarily designed to strengthen brands, not to make money.

However, the concept store is all about ROI, with many retailers using them to test the water before rolling out successful ideas across the high-street.

I went to The Hive Concept Store last September 1, 2017. They housed around 50 brands. I visited the store last September 2, 2017 & also bought an item from their brand partner, Dnemnl. Here are the photos of the shop (Photos from their Facebook Page)

One of my favorite & trusted brands in Cebu, Let's Stylize

What I like about this location is the foot traffic (When you are into business, you know what this mean: a lot of people in the area) & it's near to establishments such as money remittance centers, schools, malls. Its also easy for me to head there too 

Here is my purchase from the store (Taken from my Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Phone):

Do visit The Hive Concept Store at P. Del Rosario St., corner Junquera St., Cebu City (in front of University of San Carlos Main Campos & next to Palawan Express)
