We are the sole franchisee of Bears &amp; Friends in Singapore. So come on in we will show you inside!<\/p><p>So Sam and I actually love gummies and in Singapore itself, we can&#8217;t find any concept gummy store. We&#8217;ve been travelling around the world and we can&#8217;t seem to find something that we really like. So we went out into the market, we tried all sorts of brands, we actually shortlisted and we found that Bears &amp; Friends is the best.<\/p><p>So we had to cherry-pick the flavours because the store is actually quite small. And we had to test them and make sure that they are more palatable for the local community. We realised that a lot of locals prefer something that has more flavour and texture rather than the usual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/best-cbd-gummies#types-of-cbd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gummies<\/a> that all of us are more used to like it&#8217;s just full-on sugary stuff.<\/p><p>The top 4 items would be the Masterminds, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, the Sour French Fries and the Vegetarian Frozen Yogurt. So each of them has different taste profiles. For example, the Mastermind has a strawberry jelly inside with a marshmallow bottom. So when you bite into it, the jelly just oozes out. Red Hot Chilli Peppers on the other hand, for us, in two ways. It&#8217;s either sabotage gummy or a drinking gummy because it&#8217;s actually pretty spicy for a gummy. It&#8217;s not something you would expect anyway.<\/p><p>The number one challenge is that because this store is located in Haji Lane, this is the heart of Kampong Glam. So the larger community that usually comes here are predominantly Muslims. So we had to make sure that we have a healthy range of vegan and vegetarian gummies that are tapioca based and does not have any animal by-products or animal products so to speak.<\/p><p>Number two, space. It&#8217;s a very small store so we often have space issues and we have the climate as well. So when it gets too hot, and the gummies are very sensitive to heat, so even with the temperature outside, the gummies sometimes do melt a little bit.<\/p><p>The third challenge that we also face is that there is a lot of POS solutions out there that are very big and very bulky. We wanted something that is small. So we google &#8220;POS&#8221; and Qashier actually popped up.<\/p><p class=\"p1\"><i>One Qashier POS solution comes with integrated payment processing.
