OldTown White Coffee to shutter final Singapore outlet
The Malaysian coffee chain will close its last remaining store at Kallang Wave Mall on October 11, marking the end of its presence in the city-state.
LSN Singapore ·
OldTown White Coffee is exiting the Singapore market entirely, with its final outlet set to cease operations at the end of this month. The Kallang Wave Mall location will serve as the brand's last stand before it winds down retail operations in the republic.
The closure on October 11 will represent a significant milestone for the Malaysian beverage brand, which had previously maintained a presence across multiple Singapore locations. The decision to shutter the Kallang outlet comes as the company reassesses its regional expansion strategy.
OldTown White Coffee, known for its signature roasted coffee blend and local beverages, has faced competitive pressures in Singapore's bustling café market in recent years. The chain's departure follows a broader trend of international food and beverage operators adjusting their footprints across the region.
Current customers seeking the brand's offerings will need to look to its operations in Malaysia and other Southeast Asian markets, where the company maintains a stronger presence. The closure presents an opportunity for other coffee chains to capture market share in the Kallang area.
