NTUC FairPrice will be reopening its FairPrice Finest outlet in Bedok Mall on April 4 following a three-day deep clean, after one of its employees working there tested positive for Covid-19. Read more at The Business Times.

The store will only be allowed to resume operations after inspection and approval by the National Environment Agency , according to a note posted on FairPrice's Facebook page.

FairPrice will also activate its own team to conduct additional cleaning and a thorough wipe-down of the store. As a precautionary measure, the supermarket chain has disposed of all non-packaged perishable food in the store to avoid any cross-contamination due to the disinfection and cleaning procedures.

It has also debunked rumours that the staff works at the outlet's sushi counter. Instead, the employee works at the back-end replenishing stock and has had minimal contact with customers.
