SG gov’t adopts colour-coded price tags for mixed rice

This will increase price transparency and help consumers to make informed choices.

The Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) will adopt a colour-coded price tag system for the selling of economical rice, aiming to increase price transparency and help consumers make informed choices.

Rice stalls will now colour price tags such as green for vegetables, orange for meat, blue for seafood, and white for premium items.

CASE, in partnership with Koufu, will be launching a colour-coded pricing system for economical rice, starting with Hong Le Mixed Vegetables at Plantation Plaza. The system will expand to three more outlets next month and across all Koufu stalls by year-end.

The association is also working with supermarket operators including NTUC Fairprice, Cold Storage, Giant, Sheng Siong and Prime to display unit prices for common grocery items.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
