Mencast unit seals $21m option exercise for Penjuru property

Buyer pays the deposit as the sale moves to the completion stage.

Grandwoods Trading has exercised its option to buy 42B Penjuru Road from Mencast Marine, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mencast Holdings, for $21m.

Mencast said the option was exercised on 16 March, ahead of its 18 March expiry, turning the option into a binding contract for the proposed disposal.

The purchaser has paid $915,600, being the balance deposit plus GST, with the sum to be held by the vendor’s solicitors as stakeholder pending completion.

Mencast said it will announce further material developments when necessary.

The company also cautioned that the proposed disposal remains subject to the fulfilment of conditions precedent under the option, and there is no certainty that the transaction will proceed to completion.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
