Most of us couldn’t contain our excitement when China Press broke the news that Don Don Donki will finally be making its debut here in Malaysia.
While not much details were revealed, we do know that its first outlet will open right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur – in Lot 10 Shopping Mall, Bukit Bintang, to be exact.
“We are thrilled to welcome the maiden foray of Don Don Donki into Malaysia at Lot 10. The new store with its blue mascot will be vibrant and colourful with a diverse offering of Japanese products and much more. Pan Pacific Retail Management is strategic in choosing our iconic mall for its unbeatable location to attract not just the locals but also to capture the heavy tourist traffic from the dense cluster of hotels in and around Bukit Bintang,” said Joseph Yeoh, Vice President of YTL Land & Development.
He added, “Its dynamic concept is an excellent addition to our tenant mix which reinforces our mall’s youthful vibes of Meet, Play, #LoveLot10. We’ve seen the organic and viral buzz in recent days discussing this upcoming opening and are delighted by the excitement among Don Don Donki fans. We cannot wait for it to open too.”
