Tao Yuan：Localized Solutions Powering Compliance & Efficiency in Singapore

Tao Yuan is Singapore’s leading fresh food wholesaler, renowned for its commitment to quality. It sources and distributes premium seafood, succulent meats, and farm-fresh produce — delivering these directly to local supermarkets and restaurants, and playing a key role in Singapore’s food supply chain.

However, the business journey is not without its challenges. In its day-to-day operations, Tao Yuan faces several key hurdles. Tax-related compliance stands out as a major pain point. While Singapore’s Goods and Services Tax (GST) filing is digital, manual financial data management often results in inaccuracies, increasing the risk of penalties. At the same time, the perishable nature of its products makes efficient order processing a top priority. This urgency, combined with disconnected financial and operational data, further prolongs reconciliation and drains valuable resources. Cost management also requires a delicate balance, as short shelf lives and complex logistics raise the stakes, where a single misstep can lead substantial financial losses.

1.Taxation Hurdles: While Singapore’s GST filing process is digital, manual financial data collation can result in errors, exposing the company to penalty risks.
2.Efficiency Issues: Fresh produce orders are time-sensitive, but disconnected financial and business data slow down reconciliation.
3.Cost Management: With extremely short shelf lives of fresh products, inventory backlogs and logistics delays can cause significant financial losses.
