About
Like many districts in Singapore, Tai Seng is an industrial estate. However, unlike the others, it is not a specialized – a particular industry, such as steel or iron, is not concentrated in Tai Seng. Rather, the district sees a wide range of industries and businesses, from telecommunications to textiles. Most of the companies located here are large firms and organizations, including a number of Multi-national Corporations (MNCs).
