Opportunity
1. Acquisition of Monty’s Bakehouse to enhance culinary services: In 2020, SATS acquired Monty’s Bakehouse, a pioneer in sustainable cabin packaging and recycling. Monty’s Bakehouse is a member of the Airline Sustainability forum, and they are representatives of the Advisory Committee for the Global Tourisms Plastics Initiative under the umbrella of the UN Environment Program and Ellen McArthur Foundation’s UNWTO. This acquisition will help SATS compete with other airline food providers in terms of sustainability, and they will also cater to increasing consumer demand for sustainable, recyclable, low-touch packaging post-pandemic. This is a strategic acquisition that will help SATS expand their culinary operations and meet their sustainability goals. In 2021, they plan to set up an innovation center with Monty’s Bakehouse in Singapore to create new and innovative products for Asian customers in the air plane catering, buy-on-board and retail segments.

Detailed Pestle Analysis of SATS Ltd.
Political
1. Singapore went on strict lockdown following COVID-19 outbreak: Singapore’s administration took no chances and enforced stringent measures to curb the spread of the virus even when cases were comparatively low. Public gatherings were banned but they still had a major virus outbreak, starting from the Changi Airport. It was later found that a lot of the staff who got infected were working areas where passengers from high-risk countries were arriving. Moreover, these staff members also went to eat meals in the common cafeteria that was open to passengers. In response, Singapore closed its passenger terminals to members of the public. Additionally, they also started segregating flights and passengers who were coming from high-risk countries from ordinary travelers. Despite a virus outbreak, the authorities acted quickly and laid down the new measures to prevent it from infecting more of their population. SATS, which gets most of its business from the Changi Airport, suffered losses owing to these restrictions.
