 ALL ABOUT SHOPPING
Hong Kong's designer stores, shopping
malls and outdoor market stalls offer an
unending variety of products and prices.
From fashion to electronics, this is a
shopping paradise. The city's fashion
designers have taken the world by storm in
the past few years, and stores all over
town showcase the latest in the industry.
Perhaps a figure-hugging traditional
cheongsam (Chinese dress), custom-made by
a reputable tailor, would make the perfect
gift. Or, your clients may find great buys
on rare art and antiques, pearl, jade,
herbal medicines and hi-tech electronics;
and shipping them home is easy.

QUALITY
TOURISM SERVICES
 Smart
consumers know the satisfaction that comes
from dealing with shops
and restaurants
that provide genuine products and excellent
service. This is why the Hong Kong Tourism
Board (HKTB) organised the QTS Scheme. This
scheme certifies shops and restaurants that
pass stringent annual assessments showing that
they:
- Provide
genuine products with clearly displayed
prices;
- Display
clearly product information and/or menus;
and
- Ensure
superb customer service with front-line
staff possessing extensive product
knowledge so they can answer questions
efficiently.
Only shops and
restaurants that qualify for the scheme are
allowed to display the QTS sign of quality.
The HKTB also
provides assistance for enquiries about
purchases from shops and restaurants
accredited by the QTS Scheme.
All of this
means that you can shop and dine with peace of
mind when you see the QTS sign.
SEARCH FOR QUALITY SHOPS AND RESTAURANTS
Finding shops and restaurants that have achieved the high standards required by QTS is easy:
You can order or pick up your copy of A Guide to Quality Shops and Restaurants along with the QTS consumer leaflet when you arrive in Hong Kong. The guide provides a full list of
QTS-accredited shops and restaurants while the brochure outlines the benefits of the programme. These materials can be obtained from the
Hong
Kong Visitor Information and
Services Centres.
