Growth & Development Intern (On-the-Ground Startup Role)

Most internships teach you how to sit in meetings. This one throws you into the field. At Farmio, we’re building one of Singapore’s fastest-growing food supply platforms — supplying eggs, oil, rice, and essential ingredients to hawkers, cafés, restaurants, and F&B businesses islandwide. We’re looking for someone hungry, resourceful, and willing to do whatever it takes to help us grow. This is not a “watch and learn” internship. You’ll be on the ground talking to hawkers, visiting warehouses, collecting customer insights, testing growth ideas, solving operational problems, and helping the team execute fast. If you like ownership, action, and startup energy — keep reading.
