Prima to move out of historic Keppel Road flour mill building in 2028
Its lease has been extended from a previous end-date of Apr 30, 2027, for an additional nine months to Jan 31, 2028
Singapore food company Prima is set to vacate its historic Keppel Road flour mill in 2028 when its lease expires. The iconic 1960s-era complex is part of the 24-hectare HarbourFront precinct owned by the Mapletree group, which plans to redevelop the port area for housing and commercial use. Prima's lease at 201 Keppel Road was extended from Apr 30, 2027, to Jan 31, 2028, at the company's request.
Originally, Prima intended to relocate to a site in Jurong Port between late 2026 and Q1 2027. However, Prima has not yet decided whether it will move to Jurong or adjust its Singapore operations following the Keppel site closure. Prima, founded in 1961, has grown from producing flours to manufacturing food premixes and bakery retail.
It currently employs 4,000 people globally and is planning to focus on expanding its upstream flour-milling business.
