Sa Sa's HK retail sales drop 1% due to Occupy Central protests
Hong Kong
HONG Kong-based skin care and cosmetics retailer Sa Sa International Holdings Ltd posted a drop in retail sales during China's Golden Week holiday, as civil unrest in its home market hit shopping activity.
The company, known for its wide range of face creams and moisturisers, saw retail sales fall about one per cent during the holidays which run from Oct 1 to 7, it said in a statement on Wednesday, compared with an 11 per cent rise a year before.
