Foo was selected as an NMP on 17 September 2018 and received his instrument of appointment from President Halimah Yacob on 26 September 2018. He was sworn in with eight other NMPs during the following Parliament sitting on 1 October 2018. He served during the second session of 13th Parliament of Singapore, which commenced on 7 May 2018.

Foo served as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the company until 1 March 2014 when his sister Lilian Foo took over as the CEO.

During SMF's Annual General Meeting on 19 September 2014, it was announced that Foo would be the President of SMF from 19 October 2014, succeeding George Huang.

2003

1997

Following the success of his company's venture, Foo was interested in expanding and diversifying the company. He recognised that Singaporeans were increasingly health conscious about their food. He saw a business opportunity in providing Japanese food at prices more affordable to the masses as Japanese food, although healthy, was rather expensive at the time. He travelled to Japan and Hong Kong to explore the concept of Conveyor belt sushi, before opening the first outlet of Sakae Sushi at OUB Centre at Raffles Place in September 1997 during the 1997 Asian financial crisis. The business was successful, and it allowed the company to open numerous Sakae Sushi outlets around the world. The company has since also developed various other Food and Beverage brands.

1996

After finishing his university education in Australia, Foo returned to Singapore and joined Tokyu Group, where he worked as a marketing executive in the real estate arm of the company. While working there, one of his Japanese clients interested him in forming a garment manufacturing and trading business which would manufacture garments in India and sell them in Japan. Despite being inexperienced in the field, Foo invested S$100,000 in the idea and formed Apex-Pal International Pte Ltd in 1996. The company's office was based in International Plaza and had a factory in India with 50 workers and reconditioned sewing machine from Taiwan. The business was profitable within its first year.

1994

Foo had originally planned to study Engineering at the Nanyang Technological University (NTU), but decided to switch course to Business administration.
