Green Singapore Sale encourages consumers to buy more 'green' products

The Green Singapore Sale will be held for the second time in Singapore from June 28 to July 28. For a month, more than 20 retailers across the island will be offering discounts and deals on environmentally-friendly products like organic shampoo and biodegradable cutlery.

Launched last year, the event aims to increase awareness of environmentally-friendly products among consumers and encourage consumers to purchase them despite their higher price tag.

This weekend, twenty-four retailers will be setting up booths at a bazaar in Downtown East to ply their wares. The bazaar will open on June 29 and 30 from 11am to 7pm.

The organisers hope that through the bazaar and TGSS, shoppers will not only be more aware of the availability of environmentally-friendly products in Singapore, but also be more willing to try them out. The full list of participating retailers and partners, as well as available discounts and deals, can be found at www.greensingaporesale.com
