Flagship Programmes

To kick off the celebration of the 30 th anniversary of the Hong Kong Retail Management Association, a cake-cutting ceremony was held prior to the March Executive Committee (Ex-Co) meet ing on 5 March, 2013 at the Happy Val ley Racecourse.

The Association was very honoured to have Mr. Daniel Koo, who is the first chairman and currently the Honorary President and International Advisor of the Association, joining the Ex-Co members at the occasion. The simple yet heart-warming ceremony began with a slideshow which brought back some fond memories of the then and now, followed by the cake-cutting and a toast made by the Chairman, Ms. Caroline Mak. The par t icipant s had a pleasant t ime together and the ceremony ended in a celebratory manner.

Subsequent to the cake-cut ting ceremony, a number of celebration initiatives will be rolled out in the year. Some highlights are:

Full revamp of the Association's website to create a better user interface

Introduction of new awards to recognize companies showing continuous support to the Service & Courtesy Award Donation of a scholarship to the Vocational Training Council for students excelling in retail-related courses

Production of a commemorative book as an official archive of the Association's history and achievements
