The sale is for two physical locations and one robust website.
All three in one sale.
Each location is designed to compliment and drive sales to the other.

With hundreds of different choices of items, it is split between the two stores, allowing visitors to walk from one store to the next, making purchases at both locations located on the same street a block apart.
The website caters to visitors once they return to their home country, with orders being sent five days per week, as well as new customers who have never visited by way of Google ad advertising.
