Mapletree successfully closes Japan logistics fund

MAJIC is expected to manage over $1.0b in assets.

Mapletree Investments has announced the successful closing of the Mapletree Japan Investment Country Private Trust (MAJIC).

The venture represents Mapletree's second Japan logistics development fund and its third fund centered on Japan, following previous triumphs in logistics development and office sectors that surpassed initial target returns.

MAJIC is expected to manage over JPY110b ($1.0b) in assets upon full deployment and project completion.

“Amid the uncertain economic climate, Japan remains a preferred investment destination in the Asia Pacific region,” said Hiew Yoon Khong, chief executive officer of Mapletree.

“Interest from domestic and international investors in Japan continues to be driven by the overall resilience of its real estate sector and confidence in Japan’s continued economic performance after its emergence from decades of stagnation,” he added.

Khong also said MAJIC builds on the success of previous Japan-focused funds, delivering strong returns exceeding 20% IRR.

The fund's portfolio includes three strategically located logistics development projects near major metropolitan areas, aligning with the growing demand for modern logistics facilities in Japan.

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.
