A RECLAIMED islet off Gurney Drive in Penang, earmarked for high-end development, attracted some 10,000 visitors daily to its Christmas market.
Called the Andaman island, the project’s first large-scale community Christmas event, “Fa-La-La Christmas Market” held over three days, showcased local entrepreneurial talent.
The event, a collaboration between developer Eastern and Oriental (E&O) and local entrepreneurial community Cloud Club, featured 60 booths offering a wide variety of products.
Offerings ranged from fashion and beauty buys to desserts, pet-friendly items and artisanal gifts.
Vendors offered a wide variety of products during the three-day event.
“Vendors were selected to ensure a diverse mix for the event’s relaxed lawn vibe, bringing unique offerings beyond traditional F&B to create an inclusive and vibrant marketplace,” said E&O executive chairman Datuk Seri Tee Eng Ho.
The celebration also showcased Andaman’s focus on creating a dynamic and sustainable environment.
Tee emphasised that the event exemplified the company’s dedication to transforming Andaman into a vibrant community where people can live, work and connect.
“This event highlighted Andaman as not only a destination for eco-conscious living but also as a launchpad for local entrepreneurs to connect with a wider audience,” he said.
The 307ha Andaman is a project by E&O designed to redefine urban living, with its seamless integration of sustainability, connectivity, community building and strong focus on enhancing quality of life.
