Singapore: Food Processing Ingredients

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   SN2022-0003

Most raw materials for food processing are imported into Singapore due to its limited land, natural resources, livestock, and agricultural production. Singapore imported $680 million of U.S. processed food products in 2021. The Singapore food processing industry’s main products include flavorings, sauces, ready-to-eat meats, noodles, deli meat, sausage, confectionary, chocolates, snacks, and beverages (including beer). Top prospective U.S. food processing ingredient products for the Singapore market include animal fats, dairy, vegetable oils, processed vegetables, tree nuts, and beef products.
