Our Purpose

Our Mission

To be the association of choice for caterers and partners to grow businesses by strengthening capabilities.

Enhance Industy Ensure Growth

Established in May 2011, the Association of Catering Professionals (ACAPS) emerged as a unifying voice for caterers and food suppliers within Singapore's dynamic food services industry. 

Driven by a shared vision, a dedicated group of caterers and suppliers came together to establish ACAPS. Initially serving as a liaison between catering businesses and governmental bodies, the association aimed to elevate the standards of professionalism among caterers across the nation. Over time, ACAPS has evolved into a vibrant hub, fostering networking opportunities, providing support, and celebrating the artistry of catering. 

Today, the catering landscape has transcended mere food provision to become an artful orchestration of dining experiences. Through collaboration and leveraging economies of scale, ACAPS empowers professional caterers to continually enhance our industry, ensuring its growth and resilience.

Mr Kelvin Ng | Treasurer

Spending more than half of his work life in the Logistics and Oil and Gas sectors in China and the Middle East, Kelvin Ng, the Managing Director of Foodtalks Caterer & Manufacturer, made the decision to come home and take over the family business that started in 2004.

During these 5 years, under his leadership, he led the second-generation team to achieve more milestones for the company. From setting up a manufacturing kitchen, striving through the pandemic to pivoting part of the business to be skilled in cooked freeze products, serving some key customers in Singapore.

In 2023, he formed a Malaysian JV company in Kuala Lumpur to emulate the business model from Singapore to service the institutional catering sector. Despite venturing outside of Singapore, he has not forgotten his roots and has been very supportive of local produce, serving up quite a few events with local produce ever since the Farm-to-Table Initiative was launched.
