INDUSTRY INSIGHTS
The Rise of Central Kitchens in Singapore
Understanding the trends reshaping Singapore's F&B industry and why forward-thinking operators are making strategic moves now.
Cloud Kitchens Are Scaling Fast
Singapore's cloud kitchen market is projected to grow from S$421M to S$1.16B by 2033. Over 200 operators emerged during the pandemic, fundamentally changing how F&B businesses operate.
Central Kitchen Economics
F&B chains are consolidating food prep to reduce costs. A central kitchen can serve multiple outlets, cutting manpower by 30-40% while ensuring consistent quality across locations.
Singapore's 30 by 30 Vision
The government aims to produce 30% of nutritional needs locally by 2030. This creates unprecedented demand for food production facilities with proper infrastructure.
THE SMART INVESTMENT
Rental vs Ownership: The Math That Changes Everything
Most F&B operators spend 15-25% of revenue on rent. Over 10 years, that's money building someone else's wealth. Here's why successful operators are switching to ownership.
Fixed Costs, Not Rising Rents
Lock in your monthly payments while rental rates continue climbing 3-5% annually
Build Equity, Not Expenses
Every payment builds ownership in an appreciating asset, not a landlord's portfolio
Full Control Over Operations
Customize your space, install equipment, and operate without landlord restrictions
Potential Rental Income
Sublease unused space or rent out during off-peak hours to offset costs
10-Year Cost Comparison
S$30K/month × 10 years = Money gone forever
Similar monthly cost, but you own an appreciating asset
The difference? Owners build wealth while renters build nothing.
