Dip in demand for hampers

Hampers on display in Chai Seng Enterprise in Ipoh Garden. Sales has been slowing especially over the past two years.

SNACKS, cookies, health tonics, drinks, and all sort of other goodies are the items beautifully wrapped in hampers that are a common sight in Malaysia during festive occassions.

But in recent times, shops selling hampers are finding fewer of the festive favourites flying off the shelves like they used to, especially during big holidays.
