Renowned for its café, deli, and grocery services, The Providore has officially discontinued all its operations in Singapore amidst ongoing liquidation.

The Providore commenced its business journey in Singapore in the year 2013. Over the years, it has progressively expanded its reach to cover six different locations across the city-state. However, as of yesterday, all these locations have ceased their services, marking an end to the company’s operations.

The company expressed their gratitude to their customers via a statement on social media, which reads, “We sincerely thank our valued customers for their unwavering support and generosity throughout our journey. All The Providore outlets in Singapore will cease operations from March 9.”

In a reflective tone, the company also added, “While it’s time for us to part ways, the flavors and memories we created together will endure. We remain hopeful of crossing paths with you again in a different avatar in the future.”

Next Steps and Past Ownership

In an attempt to guide its customers during this transition, notices have been placed in some stores directing all inquiries to ClearView Associates, a Singapore-based liquidation firm.

The Providore had been previously acquired by SingFire Capital and Vino Vibe in April 2025. However, subsequent to the acquisition, Vino Vibe became the sole controller of the company. It was also during this transaction that Robert Collick, the founder of The Providore, relinquished his control of the business.
