    Still any Benetton stores in HK around?

    Hi all,
    I'm looking for United Colors of Benetton stores in HK and only found the small one in Silvercord TST and the kids store in Ocean Terminal. I remember several years ago there used to be a few more. Does anyone know if this chain has more stores in HK or are these the only 2 shops left? TIA.

    Yep. Thanks. I also searched through their website and it only displayed the 2 stores in TST. I was wondering how accurate the info is since it only let me select Kowloon, not HK island, but I remembered years back there were quite a few shops on the HK side. Can anybody confirm that they all closed down? TIA.

    Yes. Look here for confirmation: http://www.benetton.com/store-locator/

    Not the sharpest knife in the drawer are you?

    Welcome back travelbee. I did some internet research as well, according to this travel guide: http://books.google.com.hk/books?id=...closed&f=false there was one in City Plaza in Tai Koo. According to Cityplaza's mall directory (http://www.cityplaza.com/eng/shoppin...floor_plan.htm) no Benetton shop. So it seems to have closed sometime since 2008. There may have been more, don't know...

    Edit:

    I found one! This has been a productive evening.

    http://www.travelmuse.com/pois/HK/sh...rs-of-benetton apparently there used to be one in Prince's building, fashion walk (not fashion island) in Causeway Bay and Pacific Place. The CWB and PP ones are not on their site directories, I guess the Prince's building one has gone too.

    Weirdly this article http://www.scmp.com/article/18411/hi...nnot-give-away from June 2012 says there are 25 Benetton stores in the territory. Down to two in a year is pretty quick retreat (ignoring the kids one I found above not on their website, which may or may not actually exist).
