Supermarkets sell cheap frozen chickens
-
SINGAPORE: Rising food costs are quickly becoming a cause for concern amongst consumers.
But some food retailers are trying to ease that burden.
S$1.99 – this is how much a frozen chicken from Giant supermarket costs.
NTUC FairPrice is refusing to be left out in the cold, thus its chickens are going for the same price as well.
This is almost half of the price each chicken normally costs.
Both retailers say demand for their chickens has been good.
But industry watchers say continuing to sell at a loss will only hurt industry players in the long run.

Supermarkets report soaring sales since AVA's "Choose Frozen Meat" campaign
SINGAPORE : It has been a year since the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority launched its "Choose Frozen Meat" campaign, and supermarkets are reporting soaring sales.
Supermarket chain NTUC FairPrice said sales of frozen meat increased more than six times over the past year.
Meanwhile, Giant, Cold Storage and Shop N Save supermarkets have seen a 50 per cent increase in sales.
The supermarkets say sales of fresh meat have remained stable.
At FairPrice, certain frozen meat items are as much as 50 per cent cheaper than fresh chilled meat.
And the chain said it has expanded its varieties of frozen meat by at least 20 per cent over the past two years.
It imports frozen meat and seafood from countries like Denmark, Finland, US, Brazil, and Argentina. - CNA/ms -
