Design Gallery, which promotes products created and designed in Hong Kong, has been expanded.

The Hong Kong Trade Development Council has opened its third Design Gallery shop in Hong Kong, in the creative industries landmark PMQ in Central.

The wide variety of products sold range from accessories, watches and household decorations to premium goods and stationery.

The new Design Gallery shop currently showcases some 1500 products from nearly 80 Hong Kong designers and brands. The area is divided into three themes: Designer Delight, featuring gifts and premiums, houseware, stationery and toys; Accessory Access highlighting handbags and accessories; and Treasure Trove, spotlighting watches and jewellery.

“PMQ’s mission of serving as a start-up platform for designers and a nurturing ground for innovative entrepreneurs dovetails perfectly with Design Gallery’s commitment in promoting Hong Kong original designs and brands,” said HKTDC executive director Fred Lam.

The HKTDC is also developing Design Gallery’s network in the Chinese mainland, in addition to almost 20 points of sale that have been successfully set up in cities such as Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Qingdao and Wuhan.
