Sheng Siong to buy Aljunied HDB commercial property for $29.5m

The deal is expected to be completed by fiscal year 2020.

Supermarket chain Sheng Siong has proposed the acquisition of commercial premises in Aljunied for $29.5m, with a deposit of $2.95m upon the signing of sales and purchase agreement (SPA) last 14 November.

The deal is expected to be completed by fiscal year 2020.

The property is located at Block 118 Aljunied Avenue 2 and comprises of units in the first and second floors of a seven-storey Housing and Development Board (HDB) property, with a gross floor area (GFA) of around 2,717sqm and a leasehold tenure of 86 years from 1 July 1993.

If half of the property will be converted to a supermarket, Sheng Siong would be close to meeting forecast of 20,000 sqft of new store space for FY2020, according to CGS CIMB analyst Cezzane See, with the remaining GFA likely to be rented out for additional income.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
