Roles & Responsibilities

Oishi Manufacturing Pte Ltd

Oishi is a Singapore-based manufacturer and wholesaler of halal-certified ice cream, gelato, sorbets and related premixes, active for over 20 years. We operate an 18,000 sq ft factory, producing both standard and bespoke premium flavours, and offer OEM / private-label services. Our certifications include FSSC 22000 (for dessert lines) and BRC (for premix lines), reflecting a strong emphasis on food safety and quality. Our Production environment involves cold chain, refrigeration, freezing, mixing, packaging, and related mechanical / electrical equipment.

Because of the critical nature of uptime (frozen product lines, temperature control, packaging, etc.), maintaining the facility and its systems in a preventive, reliable way is essential.
