Kebun Baru Market and Food Centre

The Early History

Originally built in 1976, Kebun Baru Market and Food Centre serves the marketing and dining needs of residents living in the Kebun Baru area of Ang Mo Kio. On 8 February 2000, a fire broke out during the Chinese New Year period which caused extensive damage to the market and resulted in great inconvenience for stall holders 

and residents.

​

However, the incident proved to be a rallying point for the Kebun Baru Citizens’ Consultative Committee, stall-holders and residents as they worked towards setting up a temporary market while repairs to the damaged market took place. Within 6 months, the market was re-built and re-opened.
