Since its venture over in 2002, Daiso has slowly transitioned into every Singaporean’s go-to place for lifestyle essentials like containers and towels.
Now, Daiso has plans on conquering another consumer segment in Singapore — the atas.
On 14 Jul, the Hiroshima-based company will be opening its first Threeppy outlet in Funan Mall. Threepy is basically Daiso, but at around 3 times the price, or $5.80 to be exact.
Threeppy’s Funan outlet will also be the first of its kind in Singapore. Singapore’s new malls seem to be attracting quite a few “first” outlets outside Japan, as Jewel Changi also hosts the only Pokemon Centre that exists outside Japan.
While Threeppy has the same parent company as Daiso, offerings in both stores will be drastically different.
Think of it this way: you visit Daiso for your essentials, but you’ll go to Threeppy for ‘comfort items’.
Right off the bat, Threeppy’s outlets in Japan seems to be much smaller compared to Daiso stores here, so don’t expect a sprawling labyrinth that you’ll get lost in.
But what it lacks in quantity is certainly made up with the quality of its offerings.
The first item that caught our eye was this collection of adorable bear cushions, which comes in various shapes and sizes, including one that appears to be a bolster of sorts.
They even have travelling pillows and eye patches that will guarantee you sweet dreams while travelling on the plane.
Threeppy also has bear pouches you can use to carry around your barang barang.
If bears are not to your liking, opt for these feline pouches instead.
Adorable fans to help you quell the heat
And if you find the Singapore heat to be boiling of late, grab one of these cute portable fans which will make your morning commute more bearable.
Some even have a ‘tail’ you can fold downwards so they can “sit” on your office desk.
Finally, those looking to ‘Marie Kondo’ their living quarters can also consider getting these picturesque clothes storage boxes.
These are available in various sizes, so consumers can get one that fits the severity of their hoarding issues.
With these pretty clothing boxes, spring cleaning will no longer have to be a chore.
Threeppy Funan has yet to open its doors to the public, but we can’t help but already feel the Miniso vibes simply from browsing through their products online.
In any case, here are more information on the location of the outlet so you won’t get lost when you visit the store.
