The Singapore Food Agency (SFA)’s mission is to ensure and secure a supply of safe food for Singapore. Food security is an existential concern for Singapore.
We import more than 90% of the food we consume, making it impossible for us to insulate ourselves from global food supply shocks. In recent years, Singapore experienced first-hand the effects of supply chain disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, geopolitical disruptions and policy decisions taken by foreign governments.
SFA works closely with government agencies, businesses and consumers to manage food security risks, and transform the agri-food sector to be more productive, climate resilient and resource efficient.
To safeguard Singapore’s food security, SFA adopts a multi-pronged approach which includes diversifying food import sources, increasing local production and growing food overseas. SFA also has in place an integrated farm-to-fork food safety system to ensure that food for sale in Singapore is safe for consumption.
SFA’s food safety takes a risk-based approach that is guided by science and aligned to international standards. This Singapore Food Statistics publication describes the developments in Singapore’s food supply and food safety situation in 2022. 3SINGAPORE FOOD STATISTICS 2022
