FairPrice locks prices of over 500 essentials until end-August

The expanded price freeze covers groceries and daily necessities to help households manage rising costs.

FairPrice Group will lock prices on more than 500 daily essentials from 1 June to 31 August 2026.

The expanded basket includes FairPrice housebrand rice, cooking oil, eggs, vegetables, fresh and frozen meat, milk, as well as senior and baby care products.

Group CEO Vipul Chawla said the April price freeze helped protect household budgets, adding that the expanded programme reflects a more sustained effort to keep daily necessities affordable.

NTUC Secretary-General Ng Chee Meng said the measure will help workers and families better plan their expenses as the cost of living remains a concern.

The latest price freeze builds on other support measures rolled out by FairPrice Group this year.

These include doubling weekly discounts from 3% to 6% for CHAS Blue and Orange cardholders in April, offering up to 36% off housebrand essentials through the BestSellers for Less campaign, and distributing $6 and $8 FairPrice Return Vouchers alongside the government’s CDC voucher rollout.

FairPrice Group also implemented earlier price freezes on popular seafood, vegetables, and chilled pork from 29 January to 3 March, and distributed 80,000 Buka Puasa refreshment sets and over $60,000 worth of festive care packs to beneficiaries.

The group said it will roll out more tailored support initiatives in the coming months for seniors and vulnerable communities.

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.
