F&B firms dismayed by latest delay for dining-in
Operators say they are bleeding cash with each extra day of 'no dine-in'; other issues include landlords not sharing rental burden fairly and longer-term costs for testing regimes
Singapore
FOOD and beverage (F&B) operators were disappointed by news on Thursday that after a month of surviving on delivery and takeaway operations, they will have to wait an additional week to resume dine-in operations.
They told The Business Times that they had known there would be a possibility of a delay, but were optimistic that dining-in would resume at the end of Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) (P2HA).
