ZOUK GROUP TO OPEN FIVE GUYS
AT PLAZA SINGAPURA
09 JULY 2019, Singapore – Following the announcement that American cult-favourite burger
joint, FIVE GUYS, will be opening in Singapore, Zouk Group shares that the first outlet will be
located at Plaza Singapura. Taking over a prime position on the ground level of mall near the
main atrium, the premises at Plaza Singapura will allow FIVE GUYS to accommodate both
indoor and outdoor seating options. The outlet is slated to open in the fourth quarter of 2019.
“We want our first-ever outlet for FIVE GUYS to be in the heart of the city, where it is
convenient, easily accessible, and with high traffic complemented by a great tenant mix in the
vicinity. Plaza Singapura offers us just that. We are very fortunate to have secured this
opportune space, and to be furthering our partnership with CapitaLand,” says Andrew Li, Chief
Executive Officer of Zouk Group.
“CapitaLand is excited to extend our partnership with Zouk Group for the anchoring of FIVE
GUYS’ Singapore flagship outlet at Plaza Singapura. Celebrating its 45th anniversary this year,
Plaza Singapura is one of Singapore’s most iconic malls on Orchard Road that is popular with
both locals and tourists. Part of the mall’s enduring appeal lies in its capacity to refresh its
offerings with new concepts and coveted brands. I am confident that Plaza Singapura will be
2
an excellent platform for the well-loved burger joint to reach out to its fans in Singapore and
the region,” says Chris Chong, Managing Director, Retail, CapitaLand Singapore.
Originating from Arlington, Virginia in 1986, FIVE GUYS is an iconic American fast casual
restaurant chain started by the Murrell Family, well known for serving up all-time American
favourites like burgers, hot dogs, and hand-cut fries, with its fresh-to-order burgers and
