ESR Group Limited has announced a collaboration with a consortium of Japanese investors to develop the Sunview Logistics & Container Hub in Singapore. This modern multi-storey warehouse and automated container depot, located in the Jurong industrial cluster, is set to become one of the country’s largest logistics hubs when it opens in 2027. The facility will feature a solar power generation system, expected to cover a significant portion of its energy needs.
The investment consortium includes Tokyu Land Corporation, Hulic Co., Ltd., Nishimatsu Construction Co. Ltd., Fuyo General Lease Co., Ltd., and RISA Partners, Inc. This venture aims to bolster Singapore’s logistics infrastructure and its status as a global supply chain hub. “This is a rare opportunity for Hulic Co., Ltd to invest in a prime asset anchored by high-quality tenants,” said Sohei Okuno, Hulic’s General Manager of Global Investment Department.
Anchor customers Allied Container Group and CEVA Logistics will utilise the state-of-the-art facility to drive operational efficiencies. Allied has committed $36.5m (S$50m) to integrate an automated container storage retrieval system, enhancing storage capacity and reducing land utilisation by 67%. CEVA Logistics plans to expand its Contract Logistics business, with the new site increasing its footprint to 370,000 square metres across 18 locations.
The Sunview Hub development marks a significant expansion of ESR’s portfolio in Singapore, offering diversified investment solutions and high-quality space to meet the growing demand for advanced logistics facilities.
