MANTUKA.COM Enterprise yesterday hosted its first ever car boot sale at the car park of the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium in Berakas.
Twenty-six vendors participated in the event, some of whom came as early as 7am to set up their product display.
“We’re really excited for this event! This is the first of many as local entrepreneurs hope to make car boot sales a regular fixture in its programme,” said Sabrina Sallehuddin of Mantuka.com.
Meanwhile, in the car park area of the Jalan Tanjung Selasih Recreational Park, the Economic Bureau of Kampong Panchor Mengkubau Village Consultative Council held a similar event. The car boot sale at Kampong Panchor saw the participation of over 35 vendors.
Both events attracted hundreds of bargain hunters in search of good deals on both new and used items. The vendors had plenty to offer – from handmade goodies, vintage items to local delicacies, food and more.
The event aimed to encourage entrepreneurship among Bruneians and to help support local small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
