Our local F&B businesses are adapting to rising costs, manpower challenges and changing consumer needs.

SMS Low Yen Ling shares how businesses are using technology, redesigning jobs and improving productivity, and how Government support can help them build stronger capabilities for the future.

Our F&B businesses are a big part of Singapore’s food culture and our way of life. But we know the pressures they face are real, from rising costs and manpower constraints to changing consumer preferences and a more competitive operating environment.

It is encouraging to see the resilience of our local businesses. Many are adapting, redesigning jobs and operations, embracing technology and AI, and finding new ways to raise productivity and serve their customers better.

We want to help them keep moving forward. Across Government, we are working closely with industry partners and F&B businesses to provide practical support — from funding and capability-building to technology adoption and work redesign.

Our aim is to help our local F&B businesses build the capabilities to adapt, compete and grow for the longer term. By working together, we can build a stronger and more resilient F&B sector, while keeping the distinctive food culture that is so much a part of our Singapore story thriving.
