A new trend towards sustainability in mixed-use developments incorporating healthy lifestyles and wellness is driving retail concepts in Singapore’s Central Business District.
In Singapore’s Central Business District, an area dominated by skyscrapers and office towers, a growing health-conscious consumer is driving contemporary retail concepts and new thinking about urban lifestyles.
The island nation, dubbed the ‘Garden City’ for maximising open space within its urban environment, is seeing a new trend towards mixed-use developments incorporating retail and food and beverage (F&B) components. The result is a demand for products and services, such as gyms, juice bars, organic gardens and new F&B concepts that meet the needs of the growing number of health-conscious consumers.
The trend includes F&B outlets with gardens to grow their own produce, organic foods, cold-pressed juice bars and menus that are made to order for the growing health and lifestyle market.
