Hi LYN family, i'm planning to open a baby shop somewhere this year. Just need an advice from anyone that is in this industry? Btw I'm from east malaysia

Dont give a stupid name.

Like this one shop at Batu Muda.

I was appalled to read the name of the baby shop.
Maybe because of the name, or because the owner not so "bright", but the shop closed down many years ago.

the name of the shop?

Anakku Cucuku.

Its very incestuous.

What? you had sexual relations with your child and got another kid from that? and that kid is, guess what? your child and also your grandchild? (Anakku Cucuku).


dont believe me? Google Anakku cucuku batu muda

Since you're opening a baby-shop, I'll give you 3 advice:
1) Always remember your business (products/services) are related to babies/kids. Be ethical in what you're offering. Don't scam parents!
2) Sell at reasonable prices. Parents will love you for it and become repeat customers.
3) Give top notch customer service. Understand parents needs first, and their budget. Don't just push to close sales and sell snake oil. Sell meaningful solutions based on the products you carry.

thank you guys. will note on that advices.

BTW, anyone know any good suppliers in WM that supplies to EM with good competitive price?

Sell what parents use not what they need.

why baby shop though..

allow parents to swap FOC unopened diapers/milk powder with packaging in good condition when the kids needs to transition to the next level

Try to do more research on latest trend. be mindful on the product especially those need masuk mulut. nowaday many parents are very careful with the ingredient for baby food (me for instance, organic ingredient is fine but artificial ingredient normally i avoid at all cost).


Good thing for opening shop in east malaysia because i balik kampung rarely have any there. which part of east malaysia u will be open? Dont open at small area otherwise u will gulung tikar in no time because the demand is low there, especially most of them are native they are not so loaded enough to spend for their kids. Like maybe u can open in kuching or miri (have brunei people come to buy)


If u need more idea, u can visit some other famous baby shop in klang valley here. u can see their products and their services.

If you go to europe see the baby shop there how their store set up. Try check prenatal or original marines...wow if you pass by sure want to go in.

hi ts, whats up with your plan to open the baby shop? opened already?
where is it?
or u went to a different venture?
