Frosty cold spell hits Hanoi, northern Vietnam

The Hanoitimes - The lowest temperatures during the time the region is hit by the cold snap are ten to 12 degrees Celsius, and four to seven degrees Celsius in mountainous areas. A new frosty cold wave has been hitting Hanoi and northern Vietnam, accompanied by scattered rainfall, according to the National Hydro-meteorological Forecast Center (NCHMF). Under the influence of the cold front, temperatures across the region drop to under 10 degrees Celsius. The center said that the cold front has created severely cold weather conditions and possible snows in some mountainous areas and then expand to certain parts of the central Vietnam. Snow covered trees in Phia Oac forest in the northern province of Cao Bang.

Valentine’s Day Hustle: Top Florist in Singapore Shares 5 Tips To Meet Peak Orders

SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 8 February 2021 - As Singaporeans spread the love this Valentine's Day, local florists like Floristique roll up their sleeves to cater to the peak in sales. Unperturbed, owner Wendy Han knows all too well about the hustle. Taking a leaf out of her book, she shares five tips on what e-commerce businesses can do better to remain operationally-ready.   1. Build good partnerships One of the most important aspects that underpin the success of Floristque is its partnerships with professionals. Having engaged with logistics company Lalamove, Wendy rests assured that deliveries of her Valentine's Day flowers will run smoothly.    "Logistics is usually the main concern during peak seasons," she adds. "Hiring professional logistic providers to manage the bulk of orders means I can better utilise my manpower."   Maintaining relationships with overseas partners for fresh flower delivery is also critical. However, the strong support from local suppliers just minutes from their store means they always have resources to tap on.   2. Invest in infrastructure & resources As a florist, one cannot compromise on fresh flowers. Having to pre-book stalks ahead of time to fulfil orders that came in as early as 14 January, there was a need to keep these flowers at best from the moment they arrived. Building a new cold-room to store all her fresh flowers proved effective. Now, she could purchase more in advance and store flowers safely to complete the hundreds of orders that will trickle in on the week of Valentine's Day.   Her brand new fleet of vans that are delivery-ready is also something Wendy can't get enough of. "They are bigger, so they can hold more flowers. I no longer have to worry about the lack of resources to complete my orders on the last-mile."   Investments such as these, she notes, are necessary when you consider a long-term perspective.   3. Go digital Fresh flowers must always …
