Love, Afare: Jumbo rebrands its retail portfolio arm

The leading F&B establishment operator expands its retail line of condiments and flavourings.

JUMBO Group Limited, one of Singapore’s top food and beverage (F&B) establishment operators, has recently launched Love, Afare, its rebranded retail arm.

Not only would Love, Afare offer a range of premix pastes and condiments to give home-cooked meals a taste of what is offered in Jumbo’s many restaurants, the brand will also offer souvenirs and small gifts.

Snacks and tea will soon become a part of Love, Afare’s product lineup.

“The brand, with its vibrant colours and youthful tone, is a reflection of our enthusiasm to bring our retail portfolio to greater heights, and we look forward to extending our product range to continuously win the hearts of our fans,” said Jumbo CEO and Executive Director Ang Kiam Meng in a press statement.

Jumbo operates seven F&B brands: JUMBO Seafood, Hack It, Ng Ah Sio Bak Kut Teh, Zui Teochew Cuisine, Chao Ting Pao Fan, Kok Kee Wanton Noodle, and Xinyao Hainanese Chicken Rice. It operates 37 F&B outlets in 14 Asian cities.

It also provides catering services in Singapore, and sells packaged sauces and spice mixes in some of its outlets, select stores, travel agencies, and online.

In May, Jumbo said that it has experienced a significant decline in revenue in Singapore due to muted footfall at its restaurants during the pandemic. It announced an EBITDA of of $5.8m during the first half of 2021, ending March 31.

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.
