Indicative budgets on this page start from S$30,000 for a small specialty kiosk and vary by equipment and services.

Quick answer: How much does an F&B fit-out cost in Singapore?

Indicative budgets on this page start from S$30,000 for a small specialty kiosk, S$60,000-S$120,000 for a single-brand cloud kitchen of 40-60 sqm, and S$120,000-S$250,000+ for a multi-brand cloud kitchen sharing exhaust and chillers.

Equipment schedule, kitchen exhaust routing, grease management, heavy electrical loading and any utility or landlord upgrade are what change the figure.

Use this page for a contractor quotation

This is the commercial route for restaurant, cafe, cloud-kitchen, central-kitchen and kiosk fit-out enquiries. Send the floor plan, current or approved use details, menu, equipment schedule and opening target so the quote can separate front-of-house finishes, back-of-house services and specialist items. For programme-only research, use the F&B fit-out timeline; for a dining-room-led brief, compare the restaurant renovation scope.

What the quote should separate

  • Contractor work for partitions, ceilings, finishes, counters and signage interfaces.
  • Kitchen-service work for exhaust, drainage, grease management, power and equipment connections.
  • Equipment supply, landlord works, utility upgrades and professional or specialist services.
  • Submission or licence information that remains subject to the applicant, appointed professionals and relevant authorities.

Approval boundary: FixMove can scope and coordinate the contractor work, but does not issue or guarantee a landlord consent, food-establishment licence or authority approval. Requirements vary by premises and operation. Send the plans and equipment list for an F&B fit-out quote.

F&B fit-out FAQ

What's the difference between F&B fit-out and restaurant renovation?

F&B fit-out covers contractor work for food premises such as restaurants, cafes, cloud kitchens, central kitchens, food workshops and kiosks. Restaurant renovation is the narrower dine-in route, with greater emphasis on the dining room and customer-facing finishes.

How much does cloud kitchen fit-out cost?

Single-brand cloud kitchen (40-60 sqm): S$60,000-S$120,000. Multi-brand cloud kitchen with shared exhaust: S$120,000-S$250,000+ depending on number of operating bays.

Do you guarantee SFA approval?

No. FixMove can scope the contractor work and coordinate layout information or specialist inputs required for the project, but the applicant, appointed professionals and relevant authorities control submissions, licensing and approval. Requirements vary by premises and food operation.

How long does an F&B fit-out take?

Indicative site durations are 6-8 weeks for a single cloud-kitchen bay, 10-14 weeks for a multi-bay kitchen and 4-7 weeks for a specialty kiosk. Landlord, authority, utility, equipment and specialist-work lead times can extend the programme.
