Providing opportunities to discover new leading global brands and to experience and enjoy their traditions, history, and craftsmanship is the value of DFS Group and the reason we are chosen by travelers around the world.'
The collection 'The Epic Dates Collection', previously available exclusively at DFS and Johnnie Walker House, made its highly anticipated debut at the event.
Johnnie Walker Ambassador Jonathan Driver shared his thoughts on the event: 'There is no other place in the world where such a remarkable collection of brands can be found. However, the greatest charm lies in maintaining a welcoming, intimate atmosphere despite the event's grand scale. Being invited to such an event is a great honor for us. Furthermore, I always look forward to engaging in in-depth conversations with the knowledgeable buyers who attend.'
The collections featured at the event are currently on display and available for purchase by the public at the DFS Singapore Changi Airport store until Saturday, February 28, 2015.
