However, this time, we have some bad news about MUJI in Singapore:

MUJI Closing Down Outlet in Marina Square

On 17 Jun, MUJI Singapore took to its Facebook page to share the sad news about the closure of the MUJI outlet at Marina Square.

Besides thanking their long-time customers for supporting the outlet, they also said that the nearest other outlet is at Raffles City.

If you’re wondering why MUJI Singapore isn’t rushing to open on 19 June (got business they don’t want to do ah?), they could have their own reasons.

In order to cope with the cost and reduced revenue, some workers have to be redeployed or just laid off; so when the announcement comes in just four days before, you can be sure that some businesses won’t be ready by the time Phase 2 kicks in.

Meanwhile, if you really need MUJI products right now, you can always order online from their website.
