Great Singapore Sale 2020 cancelled amidst pandemic

It was originally planned to be held from 29 May to 28 June.

The Great Singapore Sale (GSS) in 2020 has been cancelled in light of the pandemic, the organiser Singapore Retailers' Association (SRA) announced. It expressed plans to return next year instead.

"We look forward to brick & mortar retailers to diversify and generate new sales avenues through online eCommerce and get ready for cross border online businesses," the association said.

Considered to be Singapore’s longest running annual sale, the event was recently rebranded as GSS: Experience Singapore. It was originally planned to be held from 29 May to 28 June.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
