During the Gulf War, there was anxiety and panic buying. FairPrice took the initiative to allay fears of rice shortage by ensuring ample supplies and stabilised prices for rice.

SARS in 2003

When SARS broke out in 2003, FairPrice helped to pack and deliver food to those who were quarantined and when the Pasir Panjang wholesale market was temporarily closed.

FairPrice helped to stabilize vegetable prices with its prompt response in importing more vegetables from other sources such as Australia. FairPrice even had to cap the purchase of vegetables per consumer to prevent traders from sweeping the stocks off its racks.

Avian Flu in 2004

FairPrice acted swiftly to put in place precautionary measures to curb profiteering by traders. Measures that restricted the purchase of eggs were unpopular but necessary to help deter traders from buying them in bulk and re-selling them at higher prices.

We took the initiative to reduce the price of Malaysian eggs from S$2.10 to S$1.50 for 10 eggs. This helped to restore the price to the pre-ban level for the benefit of consumers.

When the ban was imposed on Malaysian poultry and eggs in August 2004, FairPrice brought in the largest quantity of imported eggs from Australia and New Zealand This helped to alleviate the egg shortage and moderated the rapid increases in egg price.

In addition to holding down the prices of frozen chicken from our existing stockpile, we took immediate steps to increase frozen poultry imports from Brazil. the United States and Europe.

Covid-19 in 2020

When Covid-19 emerged in 2020, FairPrice acted swiftly to put in place precautionary and safety measures to curb profiteering and safeguard the health and safety of our staff and customers.
