SINGAPORE - When the last customers left Robinsons’ outlet at The Heeren at 2pm on Wednesday (Dec 16), the doors closed on the flagship store of an iconic 162-year-old department store.
Earlier in the day, the store was open to customers between 11am and 2pm for one final hurrah.
..........Discounts of up to 99 per cent were applied to the remaining stock, a menagerie of things - hangers, mannequins and some armchairs.
A Robinsons spokesman previously said that all stock will be sold and consignment stock will be removed and reallocated by the owners.
Others were there to reminisce; to bid farewell to a slice of Singapore that by all accounts appeared sturdy, fortified by its bricks and mortar.
