SG gov’t adopts colour-coded price tags for mixed rice

This will increase price transparency and help consumers to make informed choices.

The Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) will adopt a colour-coded price tag system for the selling of economical rice, aiming to increase price transparency and help consumers make informed choices.

Rice stalls will now colour price tags such as green for vegetables, orange for meat, blue for seafood, and white for premium items.

CASE, in partnership with Koufu, will be launching a colour-coded pricing system for economical rice, starting with Hong Le Mixed Vegetables at Plantation Plaza. The system will expand to three more outlets next month and across all Koufu stalls by year-end.

The association is also working with supermarket operators including NTUC Fairprice, Cold Storage, Giant, Sheng Siong and Prime to display unit prices for common grocery items.

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.
