Cotton On giving away free matcha at 5 Singapore outlets this weekend

Cotton On is giving Singapore customers free matcha at five of its stores this weekend.

This follows recent confusion about whether they were shuttering their local outlets after a Government Gazette was published on March 30, stating that Cotton On Asia was to undergo voluntary liquidation.

The Australian retailer clarified that their stores in Asia are going nowhere, as they were closing an inactive holdings company that did not operate any stores or employ anyone.

"There have been misleading media reports suggesting that Cotton On stores operating in Asia are being closed, this information is incorrect and we have no plans to exit the Asia region," a Cotton On spokesperson said.

The Instagram account for Cotton On Asia posted on Friday (April 3): "We're not going anywhere! Shop IRL (in real life) and enjoy a free matcha on us."

On April 4 and 5, they are giving away drinks to customers at Vivo City, 313@somerset, Nex Serangoon, Tampines Mall and Jem.

Customers have to follow the Instagram page to redeem the matcha from 3pm to 5pm, or until stocks last.
