SINGAPORE, March 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Singapore’s tourism and retail industries are undergoing a transformation, with Chinese tourists increasingly relying on digital platforms like Meituan Dianping and Xiaohongshu to plan their trips. Recognizing this shift, FY Ads—the leader in cross-border marketing and the official overseas partner of both Meituan Dianping and Xiaohongshu—partnered with the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry (SCCCI) and Meituan Dianping to host an exclusive industry event aimed at helping local businesses capitalize on this opportunity.

A Landmark Event for Singapore Businesses

On February 26, 2025, business leaders from Singapore’s F&B, retail, and hospitality sectors gathered at the SCCIOB Theatre for an insightful session on how to leverage Meituan Dianping to attract and convert Chinese tourists into loyal customers. The event, featuring expert speakers and real-world case studies, provided attendees with actionable strategies to enhance their digital presence and drive foot traffic.

Key Takeaways from the Event

1. Why Digital Trust is Crucial for Chinese Consumers
FY Ads’ CEO Linda Chen emphasized that Chinese tourists prioritize online reviews and trusted digital platforms, with research showing that 92% of Chinese travelers rely on online recommendations before making travel decisions. Unlike Western travelers, they rarely make spontaneous decisions, instead relying on user-generated content and social proof from platforms like Meituan Dianping and Xiaohongshu.

2. The Power of Meituan Dianping in Influencing Chinese Tourists
Hana Zhang, Global Business Director at Meituan Dianping, shared exclusive insights into how over 80% of Chinese tourists research their travel destinations on Meituan Dianping before arrival. With millions of active users searching for dining, shopping, and lifestyle recommendations daily, businesses with optimized Meituan Dianping profiles enjoy significantly higher visibility and sales.

3. Proven Success Stories: How Singapore Brands Are Winning on Chinese Platforms
The event highlighted real-world success stories, featuring brands like Raffles Hotel, TWG Tea, Dian Xiao Er, and Song Fa Bak Kut Teh, which have successfully engaged Chinese tourists through Meituan Dianping. Many businesses have seen a 30-50% increase in foot traffic and revenue by using digital strategies tailored to the Chinese market.

4. A New Era for Singapore‘s Tourism & Retail Sectors
As Chinese inbound tourism continues to grow in 2025, businesses that fail to establish a presence on key Chinese platforms risk missing out on a massive consumer base. The event made it clear that adapting to the digital habits of Chinese travelers is no longer optional—it’s essential for sustained growth.

Businesses that act early will gain a first-mover advantage, securing brand loyalty among Chinese tourists before competitors catch up.

FY Ads: The Leading Cross-Border Marketing Agency

As the leader in cross-border marketing and the official overseas partner of Meituan Dianping and Xiaohongshu, FY Ads stands out by offering exclusive access to insider platform analytics, direct integration capabilities, and customized marketing solutions that help businesses achieve measurable growth in the Chinese market. Unlike other agencies, FY Ads provides direct partnerships, exclusive insights, and proven strategies to ensure maximum visibility and engagement for businesses targeting Chinese consumers.

“Our goal is to bridge the gap between Singapore businesses and Chinese tourists through the platforms they trust most,” said Linda Chen, CEO of FY Ads. “By leveraging our partnerships with Meituan Dianping and Xiaohongshu, we empower businesses to increase visibility, engagement, and revenue in the Chinese market.”

The Future of Chinese Tourism in Singapore

With Chinese tourism on the rise, businesses must act now to establish a strong presence on Meituan Dianping and Xiaohongshu. Don’t wait—early adopters will gain the first-mover advantage in capturing this growing market. Those who embrace digital-first strategies tailored to Chinese consumers will dominate the post-pandemic tourism boom.

For companies looking to maximize their reach and revenue, FY Ads offers expert consultation and execution strategies tailored to these platforms. Now is the time to act—businesses that take initiative today will be at the forefront of the booming Chinese tourism market.
