Cafe and canteen receipts decline as rest of F&B rebound

Fast food, restaurants and food caterers surge.

SingStat reports that for the month of June 2013 fast food outlets, restaurants and food caterers recorded increases in receipts of between 1.4% and 4.5% compared to the previous month, after seasonal adjustment.

On the other hand, turnover of other eating places (such as cafes and canteens) decreased marginally by 0.4% in June 2013 over May 2013.

On a year-on-year basis though cafes and canteens seemed to fare better. Compared to June 2012, all categories recorded increases in receipts in June 2013.

Turnover of fast food outlets, restaurants, food caterers and other eating places grew between 2.2% and 6.1% during this period, with the highest growth posted by fast food outlets and the lowest by other eating places like cafes and canteens.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
