Indonesia’s Fore Coffee opens first coffee shop in Singapore

This marks the brand’s first foray into the international coffee market.

Indonesian coffee brand Fore Coffee is launching its first store in Singapore on 9 November in Bugis Junction.

The opening marks the brand's first international market entry.

The coffee shop in Bugis Junction will offer their signature coffees starting at S$4.5. Fore Coffee will be offering its signature blends from the Gula Aren Latte to the Pandan Latte and Butterscotch Sea-Salt Latte.

Fore Coffee plans to leverage Singapore’s strong coffee culture. In research in June 2023 in collaboration with Redseer, Singapore’s coffee market is projected to grow a CAGR of 5%, reaching $1.2b by 2027. 

“Singaporeans’ strong affinity for coffee, averaging 6-7 cups per week, aligns perfectly with Fore Coffee’s mission. The brand recognizes the mature coffee market in Singapore, combined with a love for Indonesian beans, particularly Arabica. With an understanding of local preferences and a commitment to innovation, Fore Coffee is poised to flourish in Singapore’s coffee landscape,” Vico Lomar, Co-Founder & CEO of Fore Coffee said.

Founded in 2018, Fore Coffee has over 150 coffee shops in Indonesia and is committed to sourcing highly curated coffee beans directly from Indonesian farmers in regions like Aceh Gayo, Toraja, West Java, and Bali, which undergoes a meticulous roasting and preparation process before being expertly crafted by their baristas.
