Samsonite will be opening a new store at Jem.

Created in 1910 Samsonite is the world’s leading luggage brand. Inspiring travel world-wide, the brand creates memories with revolutionary travel solutions.

When Jesse Shwayder founded Samsonite in 1910, travel was once reserved for only an exclusive few, those who had the means to see the world.

Given this exclusiveness, travel was a high quality experience from the transportation, to the attention to service, to even the accessories used to carry one’s belongings. As one of the original brands in travel, Samsonite has continued to leverage its craftsmanship and heritage as an innovator for the past 100 years, to create stylish and high quality solutions for the world traveller.

Today, Samsonite continues to lead the luggage category with the same core principles, further expanding Shwayder’s vision globally with design and innovation into product categories and consumer targets.

By identifying trends and interpreting the continuing evolution of travellers’ needs, Samsonite leads the market with innovative, high quality and stylish designs. And now, thanks to the launch of Cosmolite and B-Lite Fresh, the lightest Samsonite hardside and softside ranges ever, Samsonite establishes itself as the leader of lightness in the luggage industry.

MUJI will be opening a new store at Jem.

MUJI derives from the concept intersection of two distinct stances: no brand (mujirushi) and the value of good items (ryohin). "MUJI" is simply short for "Mujirushi Ryohin". It is represented by four characters that mean "no-brand quality goods".

They provide you with the basic things you need in your lives. Their items are made from quality materials with no unnecessary frills and are sold at reasonable prices.

MUJI's clothes would feel good, their food products would be tasty and their household products would be easy to use. This may appear to be very basic, but it has been MUJI's primary goal to ensure you do not pay for what you cannot use; frills and extra packaging.

You will find just simple, quality products at affordable prices. The products are so simple that they do not carry a brand name. This is different compared to the usual marketing tactics where companies produce expensively designed and overly-packaged products.

The Cheese Ark has opened at PasarBella.

All things ancient and old are fading out and disappearing as we speak. The same goes for cheese, traditional ways of herding animals are gone and the historical ways of making and aging cheese are lost and forgotten. Farmers and cheesemakers are not able to survive the economic pressures of operating in the traditional way.

There is a small group of cheesemakers though, who still insist on doing things the old way (the only way they find acceptable despite every hurdle they face). They are few and far between; and for the sake of the animals, they are found in the mountain ranges and the country. Getting to them is a struggle in itself but finding and tasting the cheese as it should be makes it all worthwhile.

The Cheese Ark gathers rare cheese that are on the brink of being phased out by time and evolution. These are from cheesemakers who belong to the Slow Food Presidia that protects unique regions and ecosystems and recovers traditional methods that are at risk of disappearing. More than just artisanal cheese, these are cheese that are about to be extinct if nothing is done.

They believe that to save the cheese, all we need to do is to eat the cheese. Every bit of cheese sold gives them the money and assurance they need to grow and make more wonderful cheese.
