Inside China town Uganda/Are things really very cheap here or it's a marketing strategy! 🤔

Inside China town Uganda. Are things honestly very cheap here compared to Down town stores or it's all a marketing strategy that Ugandans fell for! 🤔
A few weeks ago a very big China store called China town was opened and Ugandans went insane about it because of the supposed cheap shopping expectations. Ugandan are very active shoppers who love affordable prices. Many wholesellers and business men wanted to take advantage of this period to restock their business.
Who on the first day were so many that the government was forced to intervene and by the second day it was temporarily closed due to security purposes for both Ugandan people and the China town store owners, the store remained closed for a number of days until a solution was found and one of them was people using the back door.
The paying machines broke down and people were left with no choice but to take back the goods
So the question is was it the long lines that Ugandans made for really necessary, was it worth it and how is the situation right now.
Enjoy the video and please give it a like and a sweet comment.

[@LynneZaabu]

But this time we have to blame "order from above" they put a lot of pressure on management

[@waspbrothersgallons9413]

These are like 1-10

[@fridanamwanje5770]

You are deceiving. No cheap things there

[@LynneZaabu]

Am deceiving!! I haven't heard of this word in ages 😂.

[@believer2010ful]

I watched this shop with dismay. So all those cheap plastics will end in our water bodies or the likes of Kiteezi. These same Chinese shd recycle their gabbage. We are not their dumping ground

[@KemigishaShiela]

How much were the saucepan

[@LynneZaabu]

They ranged from 25k to 100k

[@abigailkhumaloel-selahgosp9922]

Hi Lynne .. just love your voice, so sweet ❤️

[@LynneZaabu]

Awee🥰

[@godfreyiga2013]

the marketing ploy was to get the name heard everywhere, then people will frock in whether they buy or not, impulse buying will be the order of the day

[@LynneZaabu]

That was the point I guess 😂😂

[@SomeOne-yv8jf]

They raised the prices to match market price. They are not stupid. Those goods are imported from China, they pay for shipping costs and taxes like all other businesses.

Hello Lynne Zaabu, greetings from Dallas, Texas USA.😊

[@Jane-zp7hy]

Kitalo nnyo !

[@romanaabo3664]

Wow! Imagine the amount invested 🤯🤯🤯 I wonder if this shop will last!

[@WINNIENAKABUUBI]

I believe they should be some items with much fair prices…

[@BuyiZuLu-p6f]

Did you find a mosquito net?😂

[@LynneZaabu]

Yes I got it but I regret it 😂

[@stellakats6568]

Thanks Lyn for this update 😂😂😂

[@DianaNamayanja-y8c]

It is marketing strategy I think

[@zacfab9]

Lynne, the place seems less crowded during your visit. When Harriet Anabo was at China Town there were lots of people.😊

[@LynneZaabu]

I went there and it was crazzzzy so I had to wait until it calmed down

[@lornakal5300]

I will just pass there to check if Persil detergent and other detergents are cheaper than where I usually buy it from .

[@LynneZaabu]

Yes these kinds of things are cheaper

[@jocelyncolasuonno2740]

What would happen to the local businesses when the Chinese under sell?

[@LynneZaabu]

They would lose customers yet the government is asking them for taxes

[@jenniferchance5636]

You will be walking me through there one day

[@LynneZaabu]

One day

[@catspurity]

Thanx girl

[@Being-onitah]

Interesting people thought it’s wholesale price

[@LynneZaabu]

It was initially but later the local traders complained and then the prices were changed

[@SebbowaKabibi]

Aba na Ugandan mulina akatinko 😢😮😅

[@DoreenLukwago]

[@LynneZaabu]
