Multiple locations, including an industrial building at Mandai Link and food retail establishments at Textile Centre and Peninsula Plaza, were raided, the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) said on Wednesday.
In one instance, SFA officers found large quantities of insect products including silkworms, as well as processed and raw meat products such as beef, pork, chicken, mutton and pig's blood, in a vehicle near the Mandai Link industrial building.
The food had been illegally imported from Thailand without a valid licence.
Two permanent residents were also found operating an unlicensed cold store with three freezers in a warehouse at the industrial building.
