Targeting young and aspiring Singaporean F&B entrepreneurs, the F&B Entrepreneur Bootcamp offers training on essentials such as getting your National Environment Agency Food Shop Licence and financing options available for startups and their prerequisites.
One of the biggest problems F&B businesses face is manpower shortage. Hiring foreign workers has become a necessity, but it is increasingly hard to do so because of stricter quotas.

You probably already have a Facebook page is for your restaurant. It’s essential – if people have heard of your restaurant, you can bet they’re checking online for reviews, promotions or even just opening hours.

iCHEF Club was created to connect F&B owners. We bring the community together by organising free monthly workshops on topics relevant to restaurant owners.
