Crystal Jade closes Great World outlet, its third closure in 2026
Part of an assessment and operations review, this brings its remaining outlets in Singapore to 15
Crystal Jade, a Singapore-based Chinese restaurant group, has closed its Great World mall outlet in Hong Kong Kitchen, its third outlet closure in 2026. This decision forms part of a broader operations review and assessment of its outlet network in Singapore. Prior to this, the company had shut down its Hillion Mall and Suntec City outlets earlier in the year.
This closure brings the number of remaining Crystal Jade outlets in Singapore down to 15, according to the statement released on Sep 12. The last day of operations for the Great World outlet was Sep 1, after which the space was reclaimed by the landlord, GWC Commercial, as reported by Lianhe Zaobao.
Crystal Jade emphasizes that their employees are their top priority, and affected staff were directly informed and offered redeployment opportunities within the group, where feasible. The company expressed gratitude to customers for their support and reiterated its commitment to maintaining a long-term presence in Singapore, despite the ongoing operations review.
Founded in 1991, Crystal Jade was once among Singapore's fastest-growing Chinese restaurant chains, boasting 120 restaurants globally, including 47 in Singapore in 2015. However, recent trends indicate a rise in F&B business closures, with an increase of 25.1% year on year to 2,101 in the first seven months of 2026, alongside 2,594 new F&B businesses registered.
