Home-grown cafe chain, deli and grocer The Providore said on Instagram that all its outlets have ceased operations on March 9, without disclosing the reason for the closure.
The brand had six outlets in Downtown Gallery, Mandarin Gallery, Paya Lebar Quarter, Raffles Place, VivoCity and Wisma Atria. Its outlet at Wisma Atria was a collaboration with Hong Kong cafe chain Jomo.
The Providore Singapore also had a warehouse in Ayer Rajah with a retail section that stocked its range of gourmet food, wine, beer, spirits and bespoke gifts. Its head office was located there as well.
Both the Ayer Rajah warehouse and head office are listed as permanently closed on Google Maps. According to its website, the warehouse's retail section was closed as of September 2020.
In its Instagram post announcing the closure, the brand thanked customers for their "long-term support and kindness". It added that it looked forward to meeting customers again "in another form in the future".
Established in 2013, The Providore Singapore was among the earlier entrants into the Republic's emerging cafe scene.
It soon built a following among office crowds for its brunch mains and premium retail offerings, including cheeses, gourmet food, bakes and groceries.
But the chain has downsized of late, closing its Raffles City outlet in April 2025 after four years.
In April 2025, The Providore Singapore was sold to new owners Vino Vibe and SingFire Capital, according to a report by trade publication Asia Pacific Food Industry. It said that founder Robert Collick would step back from the business.
