Mapletree Logistics Trust to acquire two land parcels in Malaysia for $21m

The property is located in Subang Jaya, a logistics hub. 

Mapletree Logistics Trust (MLT) eyes the acquisition of two parcels of leasehold industrial property in Malaysia for a total purchase price of around $21m (RM65.6m).

The property is located in Subang Jaya, an established industrial and logistics cluster attached to Klang Valley. Nearby areas include the Kuala Lumpur city centre and Port Klang via direct access to the Federal Highway and North Klang Valley Expressway.

The total land area is 257,000 square feet, and is a 20 minute drive from other assets owned by MLT. The property’s location also makes it suitable as a alternative centre location and last mile delivery centre for e-commerce operators.

Whilst the deal is still subject to relevant regulatory approvals, the combination of the property, along with MLT’S Subang 3 and Subang 4 can inflate the land parcel size to about 482,00 sqft. Further redevelopments in the area could also result in a potential gross floor area of around 1,400,000 sq.ft. MLT’s s Subang 3 and 4, in particular, can find an increase in plot ratio by fives times to 700,000 sqtf, post redevelopment.

Currently, a valuation of $21.83m (RM67.9m) was observed by First Pacific Valuers Property Consultants Sdn Bhd, as of January 24, 2022. The property is also not expected to generate any income distribution until its estimated completion by 2027.

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.
