Singapore Fruits and Vegetables Importers and Exporters Association (SFVIEA) was established in 1948 by a group of fruits and vegetables importers in Singapore. At that time, the Association had only seventeen members, and the office was located in one of Singapore early wholesale markets at Carpenter Street. With the construction of the Pasir Panjang Wholesale Centre in 1983, many fruits & vegetables importers and exporters shifted.
SFVIEA’s main mission is to promote and expand the development of fruits and vegetables trade in Singapore.

新加坡果菜出入口公会是由早期的一组果菜出入口商发起并成立于1948 年。成立之初有会员17位,早期的会所位于加宾打街的批发市场内。1983年,大部分的果菜和干粮出入口商纷纷迁到新落成的巴西班让批发中心内,公会会所也迁至于此。
本会的宗旨是促进与支持新加坡果菜行业的发展,协调会员之间的联系与加强同业之间的感情与合作。同时,公会也充当着会员与政府部门和商业机构之间沟通的桥梁,维持双方的友好关系。
公会在协助会员逐步扩大市场份额、鼓励人民健康均衡饮食,倡导健康生活意识方面也扮演着举足轻重的角色。本会也与时俱进,掌握最新消费趋势,寻找新的水果和蔬菜来源,为国人提供多样化和高品质的果菜选择。在水果和蔬菜等农产品价格的稳定与供应量的平稳方面作出了重要的贡献。
公会自成立以来,协助会员通过参与各项活动以提升自身的业务,了解果菜市场的最新发展趋势。组织商贸考察团、安排专题讨论会与来访的外国商务代表团进行沟通。通过这一系列活动,帮助会员进一步了解每个国家的农业前景和贸易条件,结识更多的商业伙伴,促进会员与世界各国同业者的经贸合作。
今后,公会会更积极扮演提升会员利益与素质的角色,为会员开拓新市场,扩大业务范围,使我们的行业更具竞争优势,为果菜行业创造更美好的未来。
