In the past, the bulk of professional catering services in Singapore that is available to consumers and corporate circles came from hotels.
Today however, independent caterers are gaining popularity.
A number of factors support this trend, chief among which is that professional catering companies in Singapore can offer food and services comparable to five star hotels. Furthermore, today’s caterers operate from custom-built premises with facilities specially designed to promote hygienic and efficient food preparation.
Two
custom-built premises for the food & beverage industry, KA
Foodlink at Kampong Ampat and Shimei East Kitchen in Bedok for example,
have dedicated corridors for incoming raw food and outgoing cooked food. This ensures complete segregation of the two processes, thus reducing cross contamination of foods.
The catering industry also received a boost with the formation of ACAPS - Association of Catering Professionals, Singapore. Catering Online played a vital role in its formation. With this new entity, the catering industry in Singapore can only become more professional, which will benefit the industry as well as consumers.
