Singapore's NTUC FairPrice’s newest supermarket outlet in the Enabling Village, an integrated community space for people with disabilities, is designed for the convenience of shoppers with disabilities or ageing.

The supermarket, called ‘Enabled Store’, has staff with special training, as well as lower checkout counters and shelves for customers in wheelchairs.
