CACHE converts CWT Commodity Hub's lease structure to multi-tenancy

It will continue to lease 61% of the premises.

CWT Commodity Hub, located at 24 Penjuru Road, Singapore, will be converted from a master lease to a multi-tenancy lease structure, Cache Logistics Trust said in an announcement.

Cache CEO Daniel Cerf noted that the property has achieved a committed occupancy of 86% beyond the expiry of the master lease with CWT Pte. Limited (CWT). "CWT will continue to lease approximately 61% of the premises, reflecting the strong underlying commitment by our Sponsor for quality warehouse space at the property. Together with the existing end-users who have committed to leases directly with Cache, the retention rate is 86% , including leases secured through joint marketing efforts with CWT,” he added.

Cerf also noted that the hub has an end-user base of multi-national third-party logistics service providers and businesses such as CWT, LF Asia (Singapore) Pte Ltd, DKSH (Singapore) Pte Ltd and F&N Foods Pte Ltd, amongst others. "CWT Commodity Hub, strategically located in the Penjuru area in Jurong Industrial Estate, is one of the largest ramp-up logistics warehouses in Singapore. With an average floor plate of approximately 448,000 sqft, ceiling height of up to 10 metres, and an average of 70 loading bays per floor – all of which provide users greater operational efficiency," hesaid.

According to Cerf, including the committed leases at CWT Commodity Hub, Cache’s portfolio committed occupancy stood at 92.8% as at 12 April 2018, above the island-wide occupancy of 89.1%. "Since 2014, Cache has maintained a healthy committed occupancy averaging 96.4% for the Singapore portfolio, a testament to its quality portfolio and the Manager’s proactive lease management strategy,” he added.

We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
