Number of Licensed Hawkers Under Government Market and Hawker Centres, Annual
NEA publishes annual counts of licensed hawkers operating in government markets and hawker centres across Singapore. The CSV organises totals by type of goods sold—cooked food, market produce, and piece goods or sundries—from 1981 through 2015. Food policy researchers and heritage groups can study how Singapore’s hawker trade composition changed over decades. The series complements NEA’s broader hawker-centre management statistics on the open data catalogue.
