Mapletree Logistics Trust to divest South Korean asset for $7.4m

The buyer is an unrelated third party.

Mapletree Logistics Trust (MLT) will sell its Yeoju logistics centre in South Korea for $7.4m (KRW8b).

The sale will be made through a wholly owned South Korean subsidiary of its trustee, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited.

The buyer is an unrelated third party. The sale price is 1.3% above the latest valuation of $7.34m (KRW7.9b) as of 31 March 2025 and will be paid in cash.

The property includes a two-storey warehouse and a three-storey office building, with a gross floor area of around 10,959 square metres. It is about 18.2 years old.

MLT said the divestment is part of its strategy to refresh its portfolio and reallocate capital to higher-growth logistics assets.

The deal is expected to close by the second quarter of FY25/26 and will not have a material impact on MLT’s net asset value or net property income for the year.

Following the sale, MLT’s portfolio will consist of 175 properties.

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.
