About this list
This list was compiled from company registration filings and official websites. Company registration details (UEN, incorporation dates) were cross-checked against ACRA-sourced business registries. Registered offices for several businesses (e.g. Warung Ijo, Veganburg) differ from the retail addresses shown, which is normal — the retail addresses are kept since they’re what matters for visiting. Two notes: Living Wholesome Vegetarian’s Bukit Timah address was updated to its current interim location, following the original Bukit Timah Market and Food Centre’s demolition for redevelopment (expected completion in the second half of 2029). Yi Xin Vegetarian’s postal code appears inconsistently across sources (058588 vs. 058584) and could not be confirmed against the ACRA registry this session; it is omitted pending direct registry verification.
