The inaugural Flash Sale Holiday held from September 8-10 in Phú Nhuận District, with the participation of more than 120 major domestic and international brands selling fashion items, handbags, suitcases, shoes, cosmetics, perfumes, watches, jewelry, and accessories, attracted a large numbers of customers and generated a total sales of over VNĐ95 billion (US$3.9 million), Hiếu said.
