The problem
Expanding into a Second Space
Back in 2005, Xi Men Jie that we know today was only known as Xi Men in their small shop in Tampines Mall. Despite already having experience with mall leasing teams, Pearlyn understood the importance of concentrating on their key operations and wanted a specialist team to secure their next expansion space.
Standing Out in the Market
Despite a great product adapted to local tastes, Xi Men faced challenges differentiating themselves from other competitors with similar names in the market. The team recognized this and was looking for ways to stand out.
The solution
Collaboration with MallSpacesAsia Founder
Pearlyn reached out Brandon, looking to leverage his expertise and network as someone who has been in this leasing space throughout his career. As a brand with an existing space, it made it easier to deliver a proof of concept for potential malls.
To address market saturation and differentiation challenges, Brandon consulted with the team to add ‘Jie’ to the brand, signifying the vibrant human bustle and paying homage to Taiwan ‘s bustling streets.
The result
Success for Xi Men Jie
With MallSpacesAsia’s support, Xi Men Jie successfully secured its second space in West Mall, allowing them to focus on their operations while specialists navigated the complexities of expansion.
Franchising and More to Come
Xi Men Jie is set to kick off its franchise model in 2024, aiming for continued growth.
Recognizing the importance of external support, Xi Men Jie continues to work closely with MallSpacesAsia on undefined projects.
