F&B suppliers feel 'left behind', plead for support amid drastic fall in revenue
AS Singapore began a fresh round of Covid-19 restrictions on Thursday, one group of people - those working in the wholesale trade - seem to have fallen through the cracks when it comes to receiving government support.
Many of them are struggling to hold out, with some experiencing a fall in revenue of as much as six figures every month.
Clinton Ang, the managing director of Cornerstone Wines, told The Business Times that he has received no assistance at all since the dine-in restrictions started in May, with a revenue dip of over S$300,000 every month.
