Healthier Dining Innovation Grant (HDIG)

Up to S$5,000 per application

The Healthier Dining Innovation Grant (HDIG) is a funding scheme administered by the Health Promotion Board (HPB) designed to help F&B operators take the first step towards capability upgrading and undertake food-innovation related activities. The grant helps reduce costs incurred in developing healthier dishes across four key areas: Research & Development, Purchase of Healthier Ingredients, Culinary Training, and Recipe Reformulation. The grant is part of HPB's broader Healthier Dining Programme (HDP) which aims to make healthier dining options more accessible to Singaporeans. The HDIG supports the purchase of healthier ingredients such as wholegrains, Healthier Choice Symbol (HCS) sauces, and lower-sodium salt from HPB accredited suppliers.
