Discover more of Singapore&rsquo;s Made With Passion brands that will make a great Christmas gift for anyone in your life.

The holidays are less than two months away, which means it&rsquo;s time to get serious about Christmas gift shopping. Singapore is usually top-of-mind for shopping in Southeast Asia, with a wide breadth of both indie and established brands that cover gifts for both you and your loved ones. But until we can all travel again and shop in the Lion City, shopping online will have to do.&nbsp;
The great thing about Singaporean brands is that there&rsquo;s a signature sense of passion and pride they imbue in everything they design and produce. There&rsquo;s a marriage of rich heritage with a chic, cosmopolitan eye for design that&rsquo;s unmistakably Singapore, and shopping from these homegrown brands is an experience that carries over even if you&rsquo;re hundreds of miles away.
Here, we list down five Singaporean brands that not only make great gifts for the holidays, but come with a je ne sais quoi found only in the city-state &mdash; all made with passion.
