Grab to fund onboarding packages for 70 new F&B operators

Meanwhile, Dine Out precinct campaigns will start in Tanjong Pagar.

Grab Singapore will fully sponsor a $388 onboarding package for up to 70 food and beverage (F&B) operators new to its platform under a new programme for small and independent merchants.

The initiative is part of the group’s ‘Grab Full House Mission’, which combines consumer promotions with merchant training and support.

The programme also includes precinct-based Dine Out campaigns on Grab Dine Out, developed with Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG). 

The first campaign will run in Tanjong Pagar until 25 July, with similar campaigns planned later this year in Holland Village and Jalan Besar.

The mission also includes merchant capability-building initiatives through GrabAcademy, which will conduct four workshops or masterclasses annually over the next three years for F&B merchants.

The sessions will cover business productivity, menu and promotion strategies, talent management, and the use of digital and artificial intelligence tools.

Grab and EnterpriseSG will also publish free bi-annual industry insight reports for F&B businesses, covering consumer trends, AI adoption and digital marketing.

The group will also hold monthly neighbourhood sessions to provide operators with one-on-one support on in-app visibility, operations, troubleshooting and optimisation.
