SUSTAINABILITY
Towards a sustainable future, together
FairPrice Group is committed to responsible business practices and sustainable business growth. Our mandate is to do well and do good by benefitting the planet and the communities which we serve.
Our Commitment to Net-Zero
For over five decades, we’ve made it our mission to provide daily essentials at reasonable prices, and this dedication continues to drive our commitment to be an environmentally responsible retailer. Our goal is to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and to achieve operational net-zero by 2045.
Towards a Generation of Net Zero
The grocery sector’s supply chain is a powerful lever for decarbonisation, and suppliers play a crucial role in reducing emissions and enhancing resilience. Our goal is to support our suppliers in measuring their emissions, setting science-aligned targets, and implementing decarbonisation strategies -turning sustainability from aspiration into action.
GenZero: Stronger Together
FairPrice Group GenZero is a collaborative programme with suppliers to create awareness, drive activation and accelerate sustainability impact. It empowers suppliers with the knowledge, tools, and partnerships needed to take measurable steps to make things easy on the planet.
Our sustainability programmes drive sustainability forward, bridging today’s ambitions with the long-term wellbeing of future generations.

Our Sustainability Impact in 2024
Our Sustainability Journey
The first seeds of sustainability germinated in FairPrice some 40 years ago. Since then, we’ve achieved many firsts – from being Singapore’s first supermarket to stop selling shark’s fin in 2012, to pioneering a plastic bag charge in 2019. We believe our journey will bear fruit for the collective future of our people and planet.
