SingPost banks on higher rental income after extensive machinery upgrade

It will free up level 7 of SingPost Centre.

The Postman can bank on additional rental income after completing an extensive machinery upgrade, which will allow the Postman to free up level 7 of the Singapore Post Centre.

According to UOB Kay Hian, SingPost’s machinery upgrade resulted in a reduction in the number of machines needed, from utilising 26 sorting machines in the past to 16 of them currently.

These machines used to occupy levels 3, 5 and level 7 of the Singapore Post Centre for its mail sorting and segregating operations.

“We understand that level 7 sits on a total land area of around 30,000 sf and the group has yet to decide the eventual utilisation for the freed-up area. However, given our assumption that half of the floor is rented out, and the other half is used for internal purposes, the freed-up space is expected to bring in an additional S$1m in rental revenue for the group annually,” stated UOB Kay Hian.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. 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.
