Flash Coffee, a start-up known for selling coffee through tech-enabled kiosks and cafes, on Friday denied reports of a “strike” by staff, and said it shut all 11 of its outlets in Singapore on Thursday.
The video showed a poster apparently put up by the outlet’s staff, stating that they were “on strike” due to “several late salary payouts”. Ms Cheong also said workers whom the union already engaged have been connected to immediate job vacancies in the services sector. He also said most staff in the firm’s Singapore head office have been offered roles in other markets, or with its regional team.
The Singapore unit, which listed Flash Coffee co-founders David Brunier and Sebastian Hannecker as its directors, filed notice on Thursday that it is unable to continue its business due to liabilities.
