Celebrating a New Milestone: Herbaferm™  Joins the Singapore Manufacturing Federation

21st September, 2025

We are thrilled and deeply honoured to announce that Herbaferm™ is now an official member of the Singapore Manufacturing Federation (SMF).

Two years ago, when we embarked on our journey to introduce Herbaferm products to the Asian market, many of us saw only the dream — to bring our high-quality, innovative products to customers who would appreciate them. Back then, we could not have imagined that this path would soon lead us to building a manufacturing presence right here in Singapore. Today, thanks to our collective ambition and hard work, we are realizing that vision — and joining SMF marks a powerful validation of how far we’ve come.

Why This Moment Means So Much to Us

  • Building for Demand: By localizing production, we don’t just meet demand; we set ourselves up for faster, more efficient, and more sustainable growth.
  • Credibility and Connection: Brings us into the heart of Singapore’s manufacturing community and connects us with leaders, experts, and peers.
  • Trust in Our Leadership: Thomas Vargoczky MD, Szabina Kodela Product Management, Balazs Kapinya (Hong Kong Representative) and our entire Herbaferm team from Hungary, Germany and the UK are supporting this initiative

A Closer Look at the Singapore Manufacturing Federation

SMF is Singapore’s largest national organisation representing the manufacturing and manufacturing-related sectors. With a legacy stretching back to 1932, SMF has grown into a powerful federation with thousands of corporate members, ranging from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to multinational corporations.

  • Vision & Mission
    SMF’s vision is to be “a world-recognised national federation … committed to creating value and services for our members, the manufacturing sector and Singapore.” Their mission centers on representing the business interests of the Singapore manufacturing sector and facilitating its competitiveness and sustainable growth.
  • Scale & Reach
    Today, SMF has around 5,000 corporate members, organized into 10 industry groups, supported by dedicated “Associated Services.”
  • What SMF Offers
      Some of the core services and value propositions they bring to their members include:
    • Networking & business-matching events
    • Trade missions, exhibitions, and internationalisation support
    • Customized roadmapping and coaching to boost innovation and productivity
    • Training, seminars, workshops, and conferences
    • Representation in formal dialogues with government bodies
  • Standards & Quality
    An especially important part of SMF is the SMF Standards Development Organisation (SMF-SDO), which helps define and promote technical standards and best practices.
  • Learning & Talent Development
    Through its Centre for Corporate Learning (SMF-CCL) and other education arms, SMF invests heavily in human capital — training, upskilling, and empowering people.
  • Global Connections
    SMF actively engages in international business. Its partnerships and trade missions help Singapore manufacturers access global markets.

A Bright Future Together

Joining the Singapore Manufacturing Federation is more than a strategic move; it’s a sign of Belief — belief in innovation, in growth, and in a future where Herbaferm™  continues to make a difference. As we build out our manufacturing capabilities on the ground in Singapore, we’re not just keeping up with demand — we’re building for the future, with sustainability, quality, and community at our core.

We look forward to contributing to SMF’s mission, learning from its ecosystem, and growing together — with all of you — toward the next chapter of Herbaferm™.
