Daiso Singapore Is Opening “Standard Products”, A New Minimalist Home & Lifestyle Store With Muji Vibes
Sad news: After years over $2 nett pricing, Daiso Singapore is soon to charge GST on all purchases from 1 May 2022. But the silver lining is that they're giving us something new to look forward to - a brand new home and lifestyle concept store, Standard Products. In true Japanese style, this store will be full of all things minimalist and aesthetically-pleasing, similar to Muji, but with more wallet-friendly prices.
Read on to find out more about Standard Products by Daiso Singapore!

Standard Products by Daiso was first launched in Japan in 2021, and their Tokyo flagship outlet was met with much hype, largely due to their aesthetically-pleasing offerings at wallet-friendly prices; Think a more affordable version of Muji.

They’re now bringing their minimalist homeware to Singapore with their first branch here to be located in the West at Jurong Point, predicted to open its doors sometime around the end of May this year.

In Japan, the prices of items at Standard Products are said to average 300 yen to 500 yen ($3.30 to $5.40), but can go up to 1,000 yen ($10.73). This is still a fraction of the cost of Muji’s items!

Quality-wise, they’re said to be slightly more premium than Daiso’s regular range. Perhaps this might possibly mean that more items will be made in Japan itself, compared to Daiso’s products, a good portion of which are made in China. One can also expect better materials used.

Based on existing photos we’ve seen of Standard Products’ lineup, shoppers can expect everything one might need in their home, from dinnerware in muted shades, to bath items like towels and soap dispensers, and stationery like wooden desk organisers.

It is said that this flagship Standard Products outlet will be sharing store space with Daiso and Threeppy as part of a multi-concept branch, so the shopping experience will feel like that of a department store's.
