ST group to re-open 87 F&B outlets in three markets

The re-opening accounts for 74% of the group's total network.

ST Group Food Industries Holdings (ST Group) will selectively re-open the majority of its F&B outlets across Australia, New Zealand, and Malaysia by mid-May 2020, according to a press release.

The re-opening of the 87 outlets across these three markets account for approximately 74% of the group’s total network of 118 outlets. These will provide services ranging from takeaway, delivery and restricted dining-in options in accordance with the guidelines stipulated by the governments of the respective countries.

In Australia, a total of 57 outlets in the group’s network comprised of 25 PappaRich outlets, 16 NeNe Chicken outlets, two IPPUDO outlets, nine Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart outlets, one KURIMU outlet, and four PAFU outlets have been given the approval to re-open under the first step of the Australian National Cabinet’s plan to ease COVID-19 restrictions.

The group also expects to re-open a total of 22 outlets in its network, comprising 16 Gong Cha outlets, five PappaRich outlets and one IPPUDO outlet in New Zealand, in line with the easing of restrictions in the country to Alert Level 2.

ST group will also recommence business in Malaysia starting with eight of the 11 NeNe Chicken outlets, as restaurants may reopen in the country for dine-in starting 4 May.

As at end June 2019, the geographical markets of Australia, New Zealand, and Malaysia accounts for approximately 99.8% of the group’s total revenue.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
