A sign has been put up around FairPrice outlets encouraging shoppers to only “but only what they need and not to stockpile”.

As compared to the previous purchase limits, the current one is more extensive. In particular, not only does this prevent stockpile, but it also makes sure that more customers have access to various essential items.
