Boustead Projects form Pan-Asian logistics platform with Hong Kong’s Unified Industrial

The platform will target real estate opportunities in high-growth sectors.

Unified Industrial (UI) and Boustead Projects Limited (BPL)’s real estate business have formed a vertically integrated Pan-Asian logistics real estate development, investment, and fund management platform.

The platform, named UIB, will target real estate opportunities in high-growth sectors, particularly logistics and data centres, which are experiencing growing demand driven by e-commerce, digitisation, and regional supply chain realignment in the Pan-Asia region.

This also brings together UI’s and BPL’s capabilities across acquisition, development, leasing, and asset management, combining UI’s established North Asia presence with BPL’s Southeast Asian business to cover key markets across Asia.

UIB will have $4.6b (US$3.5b) of assets under management across Japan, China, Singapore, and Vietnam.

To finalise the transaction, UI will acquire the economic interest in BPL’s real estate business for scrip in UIB. The transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, and UIB’s footprint and assets reflect the expected position at final close.

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.
