zipping Supersonic June 15, 2017 Share June 15, 2017 http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/ntuc-fairprice-launches-australian-formula-milk-range-for-under-8948634 NTUC FairPrice launches Australian formula milk range for under S$35 a tin By Loh Chuan Junn 15 Jun 2017 03:56PM(Updated: 15 Jun 2017 04:00PM) SINGAPORE: NTUC FairPrice on Thursday (Jun 15) introduced a new range of formula milk previously only available in Australia, amid concern over the rising cost of formula milk in Singapore. Priced between S$27.50 and S$35 for a 900g tin, Australia's Own is sourced from the dairy pasture area of Gippsland, Victoria, where it is processed and packed in a certified facility. The milk powder is available in two ranges, each with three formulations for the different stages of a child’s development. NTUC FairPrice CEO Seah Kian Peng said the supermarket worked with the authorities following the announcement to review import requirements. “FairPrice has been in discussions with the authorities on bringing in better-value formula milk from additional sources," said Mr Seah. The new brand joins the supermarket chain's existing range of more than 150 varieties of formula milk, spanning different brands, formulations and pack sizes. Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry Koh Poh Koon - who is leading a taskforce to address the rising prices of formula milk in Singapore - said he was heartened to see FairPrice take proactive steps to make more choices of formula milk available. Dr Koh said that, this way, "parents can select an option that best suits their family's needs". Australia’s Own formula milk will be available across FairPrice outlets islandwide from Friday.

Staff69 Hypersonic June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 (edited) Just for parents info and awareness. If you ever buy infant products. Please make sure the expiry date is imprint onto the product and not using stickers There are some suppliers whom just print a new expiry date and stick them on then carry on selling Insist on non erasable expiry date labels Edited June 27, 2017 by Staff69 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price seems more affordable. compared to the NTUC one. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/sheng-siong-launches-australian-formula-milk-range-for-under-s-9152964 Don't think you can consider it a house brand - it is still sourced from outside and might not be solely from SS. Nature One Dairy co-founder, Singaporean Masie Ng-Dimopoulos, said the company is able to offer affordable prices as it both manufactures and imports the formula milk, cutting out the middleman.Read more at http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/sheng-siong-launches-australian-formula-milk-range-for-under-s-9152964 Anyway, Malaysia S26 still cheaper Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kb27 Supersonic August 24, 2017 Share August 24, 2017 Good to see a more reasonable pricing of $30 and under. That should be the way. Obviously, the big name are making a big bundle price gouging.

Kusje Supersonic August 24, 2017 Share August 24, 2017 Sounds a bit farnie to call it an exclusive brand to SS/NTUC when they are "budget" items though Don't quite understand you. Article didn't state it is exclusive to SS though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic August 24, 2017 Share August 24, 2017 Don't quite understand you. Article didn't state it is exclusive to SS though. They didn't state in the article whether they are selling it in other venues as well. So I'm not sure whether this is an exclusive tie up or not. I don't think SS has house brands as well unlike CS or NTUC. So maybe this is just their way of making a housebrand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it just means that SS is the first one to introduce this brand to the market. The idea of making a housebrand is to brand the product under your own name (or a new name) so you will not be beholden to the manufacturer and their pricing power. This case, it doesn't seem so. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
