Read on to find out more about Teafolia’s closing!

Teafolia was well-loved for their fruit teas, which included real fresh fruit pieces such as grapes, watermelon, and strawberries in them.

Initially, Teafolia announced that they would be closed until further notice on 22nd April 2020, in light of the extended circuit breaker in Singapore. Back then, it seemed like the store’s closure would only be temporary, and fans probably expected their Northpoint City and Bedok Mall outlets to re-open once restrictions lifted.

In a sad twist of fate, they made an announcement on 1st June 2020 stating that they would be ceasing operations here for good.

It is likely that their business was affected by the COVID-19 situation, where many drink kiosks and snack stalls have had to suspend operations according to given restrictions. While some of these F&B outlets managed to stay afloat with delivery services and reserve funds, many have also folded.
