SINGAPORE, May 21 — Gardenia Foods Pte Ltd yesterday announced that it will shift its bakery production from Singapore to Johor Bahru, as its Pandan Loop manufacturing facility will cease operations on June 30.
The company said the move would result in the retrenchment of 141 employees at the Pandan Loop facility. In a statement, the company said the move is part of its ongoing efforts to enhance operational efficiency and maintain competitiveness amid an increasingly challenging global environment. Gardenia said all affected employees were informed of the decision during an internal meeting yesterday morning and would receive the appropriate notice period and support in line with local regulations and guidelines.
“The company is also considering eligible employees for suitable roles within the group’s network of operations, where possible,” said the statement. These include brand management, innovation, product development, quality and regulatory oversight, customer and stakeholder engagement, as well as daily distribution and supply chain operations.
“The Singapore team will still have 250 employees after the transition and will continue to oversee quality governance and ensure compliance with requirements set by the Singapore Food Agency and the Health Promotion Board,” it added. — Bernama
