NTUC Foodfare was founded in 1995 with the mission to stablise cooked food prices in Singapore. Today, NTUC Foodfare continues to fulfill this social role by keeping its prices for basic beverage and cooked food affordable.

During good times, NTUC Foodfare moderates price increase by setting benchmark prices. During tough times, it takes on the responsibility of helping working people tide over the difficulties by absorbing price hikes where necessary.

NTUC Foodfare’s social role in safeguarding the interests of the average Singaporeans came to fore when it dealt with the rising cooked food and coffee prices. It has absorbed all operations increases, provided price subsidy for these items and maintained prices to help working people cope better.

NTUC Foodfare operates eight food courts/ coffee shops and two food kiosks. It also caters food to nine army camps and operates a factory producing retail packed frozen bakery items and local delicacies, sauces and pastes.
