SINGAPORE - More help is on the way for food and beverage (F&B) as well as retail businesses, as Singapore tightens its Covid-19 restrictions to curb the spread of the virus within the community.
Enterprise Singapore (ESG) reintroduced two booster packages on Sunday (May 16) to help firms in these sectors defray operational costs and enter the online market during this period of heightened alert.
A Food Delivery Booster Package will subsidise part of their delivery costs, while an E-commerce Booster Package will get local retailers, including heartland shops, to extend their reach online.
Singapore hunkered down on Sunday - the first day of the new tightened Covid-19 restrictions - with fewer people out and about at shopping malls, parks, hawker centres, and wet markets across the island. Until June 13, people are allowed out only in groups of two, and dining in is prohibited.
