State of
Hong Kong Deals
On any given day, roughly 52% of the Hong Kong brands we track have an active promotion running. Every major mobile carrier does, right now.
中文版 →What this report is — and isn't
Every figure below comes from BrandON's own real-time tracking: 1,956 active promotions from 385 Hong Kong brands, drawn from a wider registry of 744 brands we monitor continuously. This is not a census of Hong Kong retail — it's a snapshot of brands running visible public promotional campaigns, which we can track; it does not and cannot include businesses that promote only in-store or by word of mouth.
Where coverage is strongest
Mobile carriers and major supermarket/convenience chains — categories where the real market itself is concentrated among a small number of large players, so our tracked set closely reflects the whole category.
Where it isn't
Hong Kong's independent restaurant and cafe scene falls almost entirely outside what any public-data tracker can see. Our "food" figures are dominated by supermarkets, convenience stores, and chain/quick-service brands — not a representation of HK dining as a whole. We've split those out below rather than blending them into one misleading "food" number.

Where our data is close to the whole market
Mobile and grocery retail in Hong Kong are both concentrated among a handful of large chains — so our tracked set closely reflects each category, not just a sample of it. Both tables are freely citable.
📡 Mobile carriers, head-to-head
All four carriers run promotions continuously. The volume is lopsided: CSL accounts for 34% of the 108 live carrier promotions we track — roughly as many as the other three combined. And the fight isn't over headline plan price — it's over device subsidies, travel perks and lifestyle bundles.
| Carrier | Live promos | Mostly competing on | A live offer |
|---|---|---|---|
| CSL | 37 | Other bundles | iPhone Duo with HK$2,500 discount, up to 648,000 HKT.AI Credits, and trade-in value up to HK$7,430. |
| 3HK | 32 | Device / hardware | Existing customers get HK$500 off iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. |
| 1O1O | 24 | Device / hardware | Existing customers purchasing vivo X Fold6 get up to HK$1,000 discount + free portable keyboard. Pre-order vivo X500 Series for up |

🛒 Supermarkets & convenience, chain by chain
13 chains have a live promotion. Two of them — Circle K and Park'n'Shop — run 33% of all 201 grocery promotions between them. Underneath the one-off flash sales sits a fixed member-day calendar that repeats every month — the real structure of how Hong Kong shops the supermarkets.

Fashion and beauty run promotions differently
Two of our better-covered discretionary categories, and two distinct promo cultures. Fashion competes on discount depth; beauty competes on gift-with-purchase and member pricing.
👗 Fashion & apparel
The most fragmented category we track — 115 brands, no single one dominant. Outlet and warehouse sales set the tone: 48 promotions are 50%+ off, and the median percentage discount is 40% — the deepest of any category. "Buy more, save more" tiering is the recurring structure.
- Percentage discounts 38%
- Bundle deals 16%
- Free gift with purchase 15%
💄 Beauty
More concentrated — the pharmacy-retail axis of Watson's, Mannings and Sa Sa carries most of the volume. Straight percentage discounts are rarer here; the dominant mechanics are buy-one-get-one, free gift with a spend threshold, and member-only pricing. Median discount where one is stated: 38% — shallower, but attached to gifts and points.
- Bundle deals 37%
- Free gift with purchase 20%
- Percentage discounts 17%
