Corporate Financier: 10 years Mechanical Watch Collector Often spotted in Quirky Sneakers

Kevin has been successful in various M&A mandates over the last few years. 

Kevin had secured the 10-year master franchise for Nanxiang Steamed Bun restaurant for Singapore, a culinary icon from Shanghai’s Cheng Huang Temple that was established in 1900.

As an entrepreneur-investor with a background in Engineering, George started his own Oil and Gas distribution business and successfully sold it to a European MNC. Since then, he has invested in Good Class Bungalows (GCB) in Singapore, and to date, holds three records for the highest price/square feet sold in the Singaporean property market. One of his notable works include a floating acrylic staircase in the entrance hall of a GCB—a great feat in the art and innovation arena. Influenced by his gift and interest in technology and sustainability, he managed to secure five Green Mark Platinum awards for his properties.

George also co-founded and managed a steakhouse called Coachman Inn for several years, which he has since divested. The restaurant successfully marketed to the predominantly heartland residential crowd ranging from a middle-income to a more affluent strata. 

Today, George plays the strategic leadership role in YQueue, and also takes the lead in the design, fabrication and implementation of the solutions and infrastructure works.
