Lian Beng snaps up Khong Guan for $31m

It is an 8-storey freehold light industrial building.

Singapore-listed construction group Lian Beng Group has acquired an 8-storey freehold light industrial building at 20 Mactaggart Rd. for $31 million.

The group's subsidiary, Smooth Venture Pte. Lt., sealed the acquisition of the 57,019 sq ft. industrial building with a $544 psf.

The site is located 300m from Tai Seng MRT Station within the Macpherson/Tai Seng industrial estate. The building has a basement car park and enjoys prominent dual road frontage and entrances along Mactaggart Road and Burn Road.

The group is gunning to ramp up the occupancy of the building.

Lian Beng's Executive Chairperson Ong Pang Aik said rentals from this acquired property will contribute to the group's recurring income.

“Our strong financial position that we have built has enabled us to seize such investment opportunities. We can thus continue to grow our property investment segment to build stronger recurring income so as to mitigate the more cyclical nature of our other business segments,” Ong said.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
