Opportunity - DEODOURANT
I can't believe this. I've been to two Carrefour hypermarkets now, and also the expat supermarket under the Ritz Carlton. At best I have found a roll-on deo stick at Carrefour, and ladies' deo at the expat supermarket.
Even so, I'd much rather have anti-perspirant. I've been using Lynx stuff for the last goodness how many years, and heck I'm almost out. Kellog is luckier - he brought 3 cans with him. Haha maybe I'll need to pay him black market prices to buy one off him!
Hey anyone in retail here? How about explaining to the general public that in summertime, they're gonna SMELL! Talk about opportunity, if you can persuade the population of Shanghai (14m?) that pleasant body odour is a common courtesy, then I'd say there was a ripe market for selling some high margin spray canisters. Hurry up!

Dude, if you're gonna be the only one wearing deodorant, you're only making life pleasant for everyone else- you're just going to notice how everyone else smells so bad. What happenned to embracing the PRC culture? Get smelly and go naturale!
Speaking from experience i.e. Hong Kong living. Even when there is an abundance of hygiene products available they tend not to get used. Try HK MTR in the summer, burping, farting, bad breath. I embrace Asian cultures, but there are some things that are difficult to stomach
