20 April 2011, Jakarta-Indonesia:  As the leader in outdoor sports lifestyle apparel, Quiksilver is proud to announce the opening of their latest flagship store in Asia’s most popular shopping destination of Singapore.  Located in the Orchard Central Mall, on the bustling and world-renowned Orchard Road shopping strip, the new Quiksilver store stands out amongst the other iconic and world-renowned brand names for its distinctive reflection of a heritage in products designed and crafted by surfers for surfers for over 40 years.
 
Stocking the walls, the ceiling, and the floor space are the latest and most complete range of Quiksilver, Roxy, and DC products available in Asia, and though miles away from a surfable ocean wave, the singular Quiksilver feeling is experienced from the moment you walk in the door.   “We’re super pleased to have a Quiksilver store in such a great location,” says Quiksilver Asia Pacific’s Simon MacGregor.  “It’s the ideal place for us to present our complete product line of action sports, fashion, and lifestyle apparel to a wider audience, reflecting the boardriding culture and roots of the Quiksilver brand.”
 
With this latest opening, Quikslver in partnership with RSH (Singapore) Pte Ltd now has a total of four retail stores in various locations in Singapore to offer the discriminating shopper easy access to its innovative and authentic branded products.
 
“For over three decades, RSH has consistently presented the world’s best in sports, golf and active lifestyle,” asserts William Feast, Chief Executive Officer of RSH (Singapore) Pte Ltd. “As such, we are proud to collaborate with Quiksilver, representing the pinnacle of surf, to create this visionary flagship store in Singapore. Exemplary of more than surfing excellence, Quiksilver has taken this invigorating action sport beyond the waves into the realm of fashion and lifestyle, and this will be reflected dramatically in the new flagship store at Orchard Central.”
 
Quiksilver’s latest shop-in-shop concept location can be found on the 4th floor of the Takashimaya Department Store, the largest of its kind in the region, also in the Orchard Road area.
 
In the Bay Area, Quiksilver is located at 02-155 Marina Square Mall, which is one of Singapore’s biggest and well-known malls.  For shoppers, direct access to the mall from the Esplanade MRT Station makes it even easier to escape into the Quiksilver experience.
 
Rounding out the list of Quiksilver’s retail locations is their original store in the Harbour Front area of the city in the Vivo City Mall, next to Keppel Harbour.
 
If you're a local or visiting Singapore, Quiksilver invites you to stop in at one of our great locations and check out our diverse and unique range of original branded products from Quiksilver, Roxy, and DC.
