See who profits from the 12% rise in ramp-up warehouse rates

Maybank singles out one lucky firm.

According to Maybank Kim Eng, CWT being one of the largest operators of ramp-up warehouses in Singapore will benefit from the rise in rental rates on the back of increasing capital values. 

"We estimate rates have surged around 12% over the past twelve months, which should feed into profit."

The research firm also noted that CWT is developing two warehouses this year, Cold Hub 2 and Distripark @Toh Guan East, slated for completion by end-2013 and will add around 18% to total Singapore warehouse space under management.

Including these upcoming two warehouses, CWT will own roughly 2.527m sq feet in warehouse gross floor area.

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.
