SINGAPORE: Prices of bottled and canned drinks in Singapore could rise by S$0.25 (US$0.20) to S$0.60 when a new national recycling programme kicks in from April, according to several importers and small retailers who say they will struggle with multiple fees. The Beverage Container Return Scheme (BCRS) is designed to cut waste and boost recycling rates by introducing a refundable deposit for drink containers. It is managed by a consortium of major beverage producers, including Coca-Cola, F&N Foods and Pokka, and supervised by the National Environment Agency (NEA). https://www.channelnewsasia.com/singapore/beverage-container-return-scheme-fees-drink-prices-importers-5854696 (ICE SINGAPORE)
