The Food Bank Singapore

The Food Bank Singapore The Food Bank Singapore is an IPC registered charity founded in 2012 with the goal to achieve food security for all in Singapore.

Our work revolves largely around turning food surplus into sustenance, improving food security while reducing food waste. FBSG is the brainchild of brother-sister duo Nichol and Nicholas Ng, who own the X-Inc group of companies. After observing the food industry for more than a decade - the increasing food prices and food wastage - they realised the need for a food bank in Singapore. In 2012, FBSG

was established as Singapore’s first food bank with the aim of being the prevailing centralised coordinating organisation for all food donations in Singapore. FBSG bridges potential donors and member beneficiaries by collecting and redistributing donated food. Its members are registered charity organisations or special organisations with a designated meal programme for low income and underprivileged individuals and families. Through a network of more than 370 such organisations of all sizes, the food bank serves more than 100,000 families and over 300,000 people with all kinds of food. Driven by its mission to eradicate food insecurity of all forms in Singapore by 2025, FBSG stays in tune with the needs of its beneficiaries and has created unique food related programmes such as:

· The Food Pantry 2.0 - an innovative food dispensing vending machine for our beneficiaries.

· Food Bank Cards - a monthly top up card that allows beneficiaries the freedom of choice to select food based on their preferences.

· Food Bank Central Kitchen - first charity kitchen that uses R&D and Technology to re-invent quality and nutritious meals.

· Virtual Foodbanking - an application that helps to streamline the donation process for all types of foods, by matching donor companies with beneficiary organisations.

· Bank Boxes - donation boxes deployed around the island to encourage citizens to donate their excess non-perishable food.

· The Hunger Report - an annual study to explore the prevalence, causes and consequences of food insecurity in Singapore. FBSG was accorded charity status in August 2012 (Co. Reg No: 201200654E) and IPC status in May 2015. It is a registered member of The Global Foodbanking Network.

When we think about protecting the environment, food waste is often overlooked. Yet every meal wasted carries the resources, time and energy used to produce it, while many are still in need of food support.​​

At The Food Bank Singapore, we believe good food should do what it was meant to do: nourish communities, not end up in landfills.​

This World Environment Day, let’s take small steps towards a more mindful and sustainable future together 🌍💚​

Hunger isn’t always visible.​
In Singapore, it often exists quietly: behind closed doors, in smaller portions, and in meals that are not enough.​

Every day, good food goes to waste while many make do with quiet compromises. At The Food Bank Singapore, we help bridge this gap by redistributing surplus food to those who need it most.​

This World Hunger Day, you can be part of the movement 💚​
