See how Travelshopa fills the gap in Singapore’s fashion retail scene

It offers two unique features.

As the first online community dedicated to local designers and retailers in Singapore, Travelshopa aims to change the way shoppers discover local shops and brands in their home-city and travel destinations. Founded by Renee Lodens, the business has two distinct points of difference to other "shopping directories" available in the market.

Firstly, Travelshopa is deeply focused on the local shopping scene. Therefore savvy, global shoppers are provided with rich, unique content and on-site features that allow them to get to know established and emerging local designers and retailers across fashion, gifts and homewares.

Secondly, its search-based site is a marketing platform where local designers and retailers can promote themselves as well as receive marketing support.

“We are filling a gap in readily available in-depth information about shopping that other sources don’t offer, and introducing shoppers to a segment they were not that aware of before,” said Lodens.

Asked about Travelshopa’s future plans, Lodens shared “with a 6-person Singapore-based team, we are in the process of expanding into other cities throughout Asia Pacific. A key priority for is to continuously work on the on-site features to offer a rich user experience,” she added.
