Help me with suggestion choosing kids brands

Hi there
Please do help me in providing me with your suggestion in brands in our new kids shopping mall in qatar in mamoura area ........ i had read a lot people saying that every malls in qatar are the same ...
i want to make difference in the concept of the shopping mall ... ours is a kids oriented shopping mall .. how you think about this idea and .. what are the brands you expect in a kids mall also is there any good brands which could be brought to qatar
also suggest me some crowd pulling brands in foodcourts and retail fashion
cheeers
You should have one store that stocks cheaper, good quality clothing from the UK, such as the supermarket brands George sold at Asda, TU sold at Sainsburys, and Cherokee sold at Tesco. You would have a huge client base as their clothes are very good quality and very affordable compared to the typical high street brands. Also consider PRIMARK. People would go gaga at the prices.
children wear....0 month-7yrs....Busterbrown
Toys.......Fisherprice. USA
Safe and durable items.
Go for unusual items. Magical items, gifts, and toys.
I personally wold like to rent a shop from you.
I think parents would like GapKids, OshKosh, Benetton...
where exactly is this mall...is it open? pls provide exact location
for sure there r many gud brands which r not yet available in doha...i go all the way to dubai JUS to shop in these few shops for my baby boy
1. Okaidi ( very reasonable , very trendy n a sure hit if opened in doha)
2.Verbaduet (again very reasonable n a must have shop)
3.IKKS(expensive but beauitful clothes)
4.Monsoon ( all the monsoon in middle east have only gals collection, their boys collection is absolutely stunning).
there r many more...but many b more expensive...the ones i have listed all hav beautiful clothes. ofcourse benotton, H&M,mamas and papas,all have gud ones...but okaidi is simply the best and so is verbaduet.
i would like to attract parents ... i have only 15 shops and in that i have only 9 left for kids so u have any brand suggestion in that
It depends on if you are trying to attract parents buying for younger kids or teens. The stores are very different depending on who you want to reach.
kids from
1-7 Mother Care,Adams and Baby Shop
7-14 Flipback,John Bloggs and Zara
14-18 Ed Hardy,Von Dutch and Emporio Armani
There are definitely tons of stores that target kids, but they're all run-of-the-mill stores that carry "known" brands (usually their own) -- Pumpkin Patch, Baby Gap, Chico, Mamas & Papas, etc.
There are no stores, to my knowledge that feature non-chain store items/brands (i.e. boutique brands) - like Zutano, Baby Nay, Jottum, Kissy Kissy, Room Seven, Tra la la, etc.. . .along with some organic lines and some semi-local brands like Aunty Ollie http://www.auntyollie.com/ (out of Dubai).
It would be great to have a store like Giggle http://www.giggle.com/ , too, with trendy brands (beyond just Bugaboo), gorgeous wooden toys, and high-end items.
I feel like Qatar has the population and the demographics to support a store like this, provided that the right people were operating it, marketing it, etc.
I'm not up for starting a store, but it's on my "wish list" and I'd certainly shop there :)
Isn't Osh Gosh in the Landmark, already?
Osh kosh B'gosh
Pumpkin Patch
A little bit of e-bashing is not detrimental to your health!
How about a cheap store (aka Reject Store), where you get the high street brands at cheap prices. (i,e goods that have been rejected by the clothing line companies and are then sold on direct from the factories to distributing shops)
What about toys ??? Will you be selling them also ??
Couple of bvrands to add on: Jeep, Wrangler, Levis + Adidas, Nike etc.
Expat Sueno, there are quite a few shops that target kids. They aren't doing that well, unfortunately. KEKOS closed. In Italy, it is a leading kids brand.
What do you suggest?
One thing that is sorely lacking in Qatar is a baby/children's boutique. The "standard" brands, and a few "high end" brands are available. . .but the truly unique and fun brands are not. I honestly believe that anyone who opened a children's boutique would be very, very successful provided that he/she had some guidance on what to sell.
its a kids mall where all the time we would have fun ...magic shows ,entertainments ..etc ... 60 % shops would be kids oriented
go for Esprit, Benetton, H&M...
I buy my clothes at the RL children's section ;)
jafarnk, you are talking about the full grown kids mall that I read about it, soon to open in Ma'amora? So you want to import brands?
Can you explain the concept of the mall? We have 6 kids brands that we tried to bring to Qatar, but no mall would give us space.
Thanks!
OSH KOSH BIGAY!
Try OSH KOSH BGOSH and NEXT for Kids..Good stuff..
You won't fully enjoy a swing unless you raise your feet from the ground......
Kids Brands, Adams, Mothercare, BHS, M&S, Gap Kids, Zara Kids, And so on..:)
