[SINGAPORE] Singapore prides itself as a food haven. Residents and visitors love wining and dining at the wide range of food and beverage outlets here.
However, the local F&B scene is reeling from a spate of closures of F&B outlets. Might Singapore’s status as a top food destination be undermined by the high failure rate in this sector?
