SEA Logistic Partners (“SLP”) and GLP has announced a new joint venture to invest in and develop modern logistic real estate in Vietnam. The venture will initially focus on the two largest markets in the country, Greater Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and its nearby provinces. The partnership enables SLP to leverage GLP’s fund management, development and operational expertise and resources, as well as GLP’s extensive global customer network.

In coordination with the announcement of the joint venture, SLP announced it secured approximately 335,000 SQM of land in Greater Hanoi and Greater Ho Chi Minh City for the development of three modern logistics assets which will have 210,000 SQM of net leasable area upon completion. Two of the developments, SLP Park Bac Giang and SLP Park Bac Ninh, are strategically located in North Vietnam. SLP Park Bac Giang, with a net leasable area of 80,000 SQM, has received 50 percent pre-leased commitment from Jusda, the former central logistics unit of Foxconn group and the most professional supply chain logistics technology service platform in the manufacturing industry, as well as an existing GLP customer. The third property, SLP Park Long Hau, is strategically located in Long Hau, Long An Province and is part of the Greater Ho Chi Minh area, which serves as a bridge between Ho Chi Minh City and the 12 provinces in the Mekong Delta.

SLP will initially focus on developments in the two major regions that are strategically located as logistic or distribution hubs and will also seek to strategically acquire logistic assets that support its overall growth goals in the country.

Ming Mei, co-founder and CEO of GLP, said: “Within Southeast Asia, Vietnam is one of the most attractive markets given its population dynamics, growing economy and middle class which support domestic consumption. When GLP enters a new market, growth and scalability are two key factors we consider. We see similarities between Vietnam and our logistics businesses in China, India and Japan and know we can leverage our expertise and knowledge from our experiences in those markets to create a strong and sustainable business in Vietnam.”

Chih Cheung, a founding partner of SLP, noted: “With a young and skilled workforce, strategic geographical location and supportive government policies on investment, Vietnam is poised to benefit from further diversification of the global supply chain and manufacturing, which will fuel demand for logistics infrastructure to support operations of both local and global companies.”
