F&B sales slump to 7.3% for month of June

This follows May’s 46.4% growth in sales.

In a report published by the Department of Statistics Singapore, food and beverage sales reached an increase of 7.3% year-on-year (YoY) in the month of June, a drop from May’s 46.4%.

This brings the total value to $529m, with higher demand for food deliveries cited as the main reason for this. Online food deliveries encountered an uptick of 47.7%, higher than May’s 38.7%.

Several sectors experienced growth as well, with fast food outlets attaining a 23% YoY, and cafes and food courts experiencing a similar expansion at 23.1%.

Food caterers underwent the largest decrease as sales crashed by 44.5%. The report points to lower demand for catered meals as the culprit.

The restaurant sector, meanwhile, experienced a similar reduction of 7.3%, which can be attributed to the heightened dine-in restrictions.

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.
