regarding the bugis kiosk - yes have to be licensed as well. as long as you're selling f&b products, yes must be licensed.

i'm not so sure about those pasar malam stores tho, but i believe they do at least have to get a temporary permit to sell f&b items

clifford centre is one of the "older" buildings you see when you step out of raffles mrt. busy lunch crowd

Yup I agree. Clifford centre is beside caltex house. You can approach the food shops to sublet a corner to you but seems you need quite a bit of space if you are boiling the herbal tea and I'm not sure if they are willing to do so. If they sublet the corner to you, their food shop license should be sufficient to cover for you as well, but you must ensure that it is stated clearly in the contract that you are the licensee. Actually getting a license is not that difficult just alot of paperwork so you may want to consider applying your own license.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your advise....I also feel there is many paper works in order to get the license

Due to 1st time applying...I am confuse and lost direction

The license have to apply from AVA, right?

good luck!

Yes I think the website is pretty clear I have been there before. But I think you need to have the premises before you apply for the food shop license though you can't operate until you get it.

Best is you just take over a drink stall in the market, think the food shop license can be transferred to you. But still need to register your business in acra but that is quite easy.

Hi, Dearashiu & Pokerface

Dearashiu -- For your suggestion -- take over drink stall at the market...you mean the hawker centre at HDB area?

I am thinking where to set up my business...inside shopping mall...the rental is high ...my selling price is between $1.20 - $ 2.00 ...so, hawker centre should be cheaper (correct me if I am wrong)

I need to have enough space for boiling equitment and fridge

Definitely, I can not boil at home..got to boil at my stall....

I have been to FUNAN DIGITAL MALL (ground flloor) to see the Fu Hua Herbal Tea Stall ( near to Ya Kun Coffee) ...i wanna to do similar like them ..but not that big as them...cause I do not have enough fund to hire staff....

hawker stall at amoy and maxwell also can - but rates is about 1.8k to 2+k, not inclu of sc&c charges.

hakwer sell $1.2 to $2 also reasonable. depends on what ingredients you put in.

you can go to NEA website to check the avail places for bidding. can see floor area, bid amt of successful bidders, etc
