These cases have not yet been included in the current Comprises non-retail food establishments ( food manufacturers, cold stores, slaughterhouses); and retail food establishments ( coffee shops, restaurants, cafes, takeaway shops, supermarkets, and food caterers).4 Hawker stalls refer to smaller compartmentalised units which are housed within markets/food centres owned by MSE and HDB (excludes private markets/food centres of other Statutory Boards, SLA s Lau Pa Sat and JTC s Jurong Port Road Food Centre).5 There is no grading for private markets, supermarkets and street hawkers.

These include piped water into premises, protected dug well, As defined by WHO, sanitation facilities that hygienically separate human excreta from human contact.
