SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 26 June 2025 – A new food factory hub, EcoFood@Mandai, has officially launched in Singapore’s northern region, bringing purpose-built factory units to a wide range of food and beverage (F&B) businesses. Strategically located in the Mandai industrial zone, this development aims to serve as a functional space for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to set up operations such as food processing, manufacturing, or packaging within a dedicated infrastructure. EcoFood@Mandai Food Factory in Singapore The opening comes at a time when demand for food production space remains steady, driven by Singapore’s robust F&B sector and government initiatives to strengthen local food resilience. By offering customisable units for sale, not rent, EcoFood@Mandai provides long-term asset security for business owners while supporting operational flexibility through modular design options. A Wide Range of F&B Operations The local industry comprises a diverse mix of food businesses, from large-scale food manufacturers to cloud kitchen operators and specialised artisanal producers. Common types of operations include cold storage, roasted coffee bean production, cooked meat manufacturing, dessert preparation, and seafood processing. At EcoFood@Mandai, each unit is designed with the infrastructure to support a wide spectrum of these activities. Businesses in Singapore may install their own cold room facilities, set up commercial-grade kitchens, or develop bespoke layouts to support streamlined workflow, hygiene zoning, and food safety protocols. This flexibility is particularly important for growing brands who require purpose-built spaces for their unique production lines. One example might be a commercial kitchen operator preparing frozen meals for retail and delivery. Another may be a beverage start-up requiring controlled temperature zones for bottling and mixing. By purchasing space at EcoFood@Mandai, these businesses gain ownership over their premises while enjoying shared access to vehicle loading bays, high floor loading capacities, and waste management systems—features that are essential to food factory operations. Built for the Modern Food Industry Unlike conventional industrial buildings, EcoFood@Mandai is tailored specifically for food businesses. The units are zoned for food production and come with features suited to chilled and frozen storage, food preparation, and even automation. Owners can install a cold room Singapore-compliant with HACCP or SFA standards to ensure product safety and temperature control, which is vital in handling perishable goods such as seafood, dairy, and pre-cooked meals. Additionally, the development’s layout is conducive to cloud kitchen setups, which continue to be in demand as the online food delivery economy matures. Businesses can build dedicated cloud kitchen spaces within the units, enabling them to serve multiple food brands under one roof with optimised kitchen workflows and minimal customer-facing space requirements. A Strategic Mandai Location Located within the Mandai industrial cluster, the new Mandai food factory project benefits from proximity to key food manufacturing zones and established logistics routes. Its closeness to the Woodlands Causeway significantly reduces transportation time, an essential advantage for businesses dealing with perishable goods and time-sensitive distribution. The area is also home to a growing number of commercial kitchen operators, particularly those serving institutions and food delivery services. The ability to customise and install a fully operational cold room on site enhances the value proposition for companies looking to expand capacity or reduce reliance on leased facilities. The nearby Sungei Kadut Eco District is set to become a hub for innovation, with upcoming developments like the Agri-Food Innovation Park. This ecosystem will bring food manufacturers, high-tech farming communities, suppliers, and distributors in one vicinity, creating opportunities for collaboration and operational efficiency. Ownership Over Leasing EcoFood@Mandai differs from typical rental-based food factory developments. Units are available for sale only, offering buyers complete autonomy in tailoring their space to suit specific production needs. Whether outfitting a central kitchen, a drinks bottling line, or a raw ingredient packaging area, buyers can work with their own contractors and consultants to optimise the layout. This model of ownership aligns with the long-term needs of food manufacturers, many of whom require stability to make capital-intensive investments such as refrigeration systems or food-safe flooring. The ability to build a dedicated cold room, a key element in many food production businesses, without tenancy constraints adds to the site’s appeal. A New Chapter for Singapore’s Food Production Landscape As Singapore continues to grow its food resilience strategy, developments like EcoFood@Mandai will play a role in enabling innovation, scale, and specialisation in food production. From central kitchens to cold storage operators, the development caters to the varied needs of modern food businesses. With purchase-only units and the infrastructure to support everything from commercial kitchen setups to cold room Singapore installations, EcoFood@Mandai is poised to become a key destination for F&B enterprises seeking to build a long-term footprint in the north.Hashtag: #EcoFood@Mandai https://www.ecofood.com.sg/ The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

The Startup ASEAN platform is designed as a comprehensive one-stop hub, offering startups direct access to regional market opportunities, funding, investor networks, talent development and ecosystem insights. YB Tuan Chang Lih Kang, Minister of MOSTI, said “Malaysia is honored to chair ASEAN in 2025 and take the lead in building a truly integrated and empowered regional startup ecosystem. The Startup ASEAN platform is more than a digital gateway, it is a strategic enabler designed through collaboration with all ASEAN Member States to address fragmented access to market, funding, talent and data. This launch marks the first major deliverable under the ASEAN Startup Technology Ignite 2025, and I would like to commend Cradle for its focal role in driving this initiative with all other ASEAN Member States. Through this platform, we are not only unlocking new opportunities for collaboration across region but also creating greater access for Malaysian startups to expand, scale and thrive in ASEAN and beyond,” continued YB Chang. “Today we witness the official launch of Startup ASEAN-a transformative initiative designed to serve as the centralised hub for all startups across our region. By seamlessly connecting entrepreneurs, investors, government institutions, and ecosystem builders across our Member States, this platform embodies ASEAN’s unwavering commitment to deepening regional integration while unlocking unprecedented opportunities through technology and innovation,” said H.E. Dr. Kao Kim Hourn, Secretary-General of ASEAN. Norman Matthieu Vanhaecke, Group Chief Executive Officer of Cradle, emphasised “Cradle is proud to lead this effort and contribute to ASEAN’s growth through innovation.

In addition to the regional database, the platform will host regional programmes aimed at strengthening cross-border collaboration among all ASEAN Member States and dialogue partners such as South Korea and China,” continued Norman. The ASEAN Startup Initiative, approved in 2023, appointed Cradle under MOSTI’s mandate to lead its implementation. The initiative focuses on developing startup friendly policies, enhancing ecosystem readiness and driving impactful regional programmes and partnerships. As ASEAN Chair in 2025, Malaysia’s leadership under the ASEAN Technology Startup Ignite programme signals a strategic move to position the country as a regional innovation hub.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 26 June 2025 – Singapore based fintech ROSHI has released a new report analysing credit card debt levels across Southeast Asia, providing insights into how consumers in the region are managing high-interest unsecured debt amidst ongoing economic pressures. Credit Card Debt in ASEAN and Beyond 2025 The report reveals that Singapore has one of the highest average credit card balances in the region with cardholders carrying an average of S$5,335 equivalent to 86% of the average monthly income. While this may appear significant, ROSHI’s analysis suggests that strong repayment habits and access to advanced financial infrastructure mean that credit card usage in Singapore is largely strategic rather than unsustainable. However, the situation varies dramatically across the region. In the Philippines, the average credit card balance stands at S$2,092, while the average monthly income is just S$492 resulting in a debt-to-income ratio of over 425%. This finding highlights growing consumer vulnerability in emerging markets with limited access to affordable credit solutions. “Our research shows that while Singaporeans are carrying high card balances, they tend to use credit more strategically for cashback and point rewards compared to some of their regional neighbours,” said Mr. Amir Nada, ROSHI CEO. “But with interest rates on credit cards still hovering around 25–29%, it’s critical for consumers to remain proactive in how they manage unsecured debt.” The report also explores regional macroeconomic trends including inflation, interest rate environments and digital financial adoption offering a broader context to credit card debt dynamics across ASEAN and beyond. ROSHI remains committed to providing transparent, data-led insights to support smarter financial decisions for individuals in Singapore and the wider Southeast Asian region.
