Orchard Road ranks 8th in luxury rent growth

It reported a 4.1% rental rise.

Orchard Road ranked 8th amongst global luxury locations with rising prime rents, Savills reported.

The area reported a 4.1% rent increase amidst reduced availability and improving occupier demand.

Despite the growth, prime rents in Singapore's core luxury destinations remained below pre-pandemic levels (Q4 2023 vs Q4 2019), experiencing a decrease of 23%.

In addition, luxury retail brands continued to close marginal stores and expand flagship locations, as seen at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.

Last year, eight in 19 core luxury locations globally reported a headline prime rent increase.

Topping the list is Bloor Street in Toronto, where prime rents increased 16%, followed by Madison Avenue in New York (9.5%), PC Hooftstraat in Amsterdam (7.4%), and Canton Road in Hong Kong (4.3%).

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
