SINGAPORE: More coffee shops in Singapore are set to offer budget meals and accept Community Development Council (CDC) vouchers at their outlets from Monday (Jul 1).
A total of 330 coffee shops in Housing and Development Board (HDB) estates will provide these affordable food options for residents by the end of the month.
This figure includes 180 coffee shops under nine private chain operators, said HDB and Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG) in a joint press release.
The eateries will progressively offer affordable fare and accept CDC vouchers from Monday, also marking the expansion of the budget meal initiative beyond rental HDB coffee shops.
The private coffee shop chains that have come on board are Badaling, Broadway, De Tian, Chang Cheng, FoodFare Kopitiam, Kimly, Kim San Leng, Koufu and Select.
Of the 180 coffee shops, 120 are privately owned, forming close to 30 per cent of the privately owned coffee shops in HDB estates.
The remaining 60 are rental coffee shops that will now voluntarily offer budget meals ahead of their lease renewal.
AFFORDABLE OPTIONS
The budget meal initiative, announced in March 2023, aims to provide Singaporeans with more affordable food options.
The initiative requires all rental HDB coffee shops that are renewing their tenancies from May 2023 to offer at least four budget meals and two budget drink options.
Budget meals include lunch or dinner options that are typically priced at S$3.50 (US$2.60) and below, as well as drinks priced at S$1.20 and below.
