“In this last attempt to save our brand, we will give over 30% off curated sets for dine-in customers from 17 July to 17 August at selected outlets. This special discount is to thank you for your support during Circuit Breaker (we couldn’t have lasted this long without you) and to encourage you and your family to dine with us.”
The letter appealing for the public’s help said it is giving a 30 per cent discount for dine-in customers from July 17 to Aug. 17 as a show of appreciation.

The boss at Founder Bak Kut Teh continued in its appeal by mentioning “If we don’t turn around in the next two months, we will need to shut down. We sincerely seek your support to save our brand, the jobs of our employees and our heritage.”
To attract more local customers, Founder Bak Kut Teh is now offering “over 30% off curated family set menus from July 17 to August 17 at Founder Bak Kut Teh Hotel Boss, Bugis and Downtown East outlets”.
