Pre-lease of retail space at orchardgateway hits over 90%

Rents at Orchard Road still at $35.1 psf.

According to Savills, asset enhancements, limited supply and interest from international retailers shored up prime Orchard Road rents which held firm at S$35.1 per sq ft per month in Q2. 

Savills said that in addition, retail space in the pipeline saw healthy absorption with orchardgateway having pre-let over 90% of its retail space.

"Prime suburban rents have likewise remained at S$31.1 per sq ft per month. Despite looming supply in the suburbs, landlords still maintained their asking rents but pre-commitment rates had slowed, except for the brisk take-up by F&B operators and beauty and wellness services," Savills said.

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.
