Cheers, an established outlet with over 130 stores
strategically located islandwide since it was set up 15
years ago announced a new franchise programme at
the first franchised Cheers store at Choa Chu Kang.
The franchise programme seeks to encourage the
spirit of entrepreneurship among Singaporeans, inject
new energy into the Cheers brand and boost business
growth to provide more convenience to customers.
In line with FairPrice’s commitment towards
community-bonding initiatives, FairPrice
Foundation donated S$9,000 to the Nanyang
Junior College (NYJC) Wall Mural Painting
Project. This was in conjunction with NYJC’s
35
th
anniversary, in partnership with the Braddell
Heights Citizens Consultative Committee, and
involved over 800 JC1 students who painted
and restored 35 wall murals in Braddell Heights.
The initiative provided an avenue for NYJC
students to contribute back to residents in
the community.
