Sime Darby Property and ESR Expand E-Metro Logistics Park in Malaysia with Two New Grade A Facilities

• Completion of Metrohub 4 and start of construction on Metrohub 3, adding more than 2,200,000 sq ft (over 200,000 sqm) of warehouse space in Selangor
• MIXUE secured as the first pre-committed customer in Metrohub 4, alongside the full occupancy of Metrohub 1 and 2, reflecting strong leasing and customer demand

ARA DAMANSARA / SINGAPORE, 10 July 2026 – Sime Darby Property Berhad (“Sime Darby Property”) and its joint venture partner, ESR, an Asia-Pacific focused real asset owner and manager, have expanded E-Metro Logistics Park in Bandar Bukit Raja, Selangor, with two new Grade A logistics facilities.

The completion of Metrohub 4 and the commencement of construction on Metrohub 3 will add more than 2,200,000 sq ft (over 200,000 sqm) of warehouse space to one of Malaysia’s most strategically connected logistics corridors, further strengthening E-Metro Logistics Park’s position as a premier logistics and industrial hub. Located near Port Klang, Malaysia’s busiest port, and with direct access to key expressways across the Klang Valley, the park offers customers seamless connectivity to regional and global markets.

The two new facilities respond to sustained demand for modern, well-located logistics space in Selangor. The first two phases – Metrohub 1 and Metrohub 2 – are fully occupied by customers across the e-commerce, third-party logistics, and supply chain sectors.

At circa 1,380,000 sq ft (approximately 130,000 sqm), Metrohub 4 is the largest multi-tenanted ready-built warehouse in the Metrohub portfolio, and will house the regional distribution centre for MIXUE, making the global beverage chain the facility’s first pre-committed customer, with its commitment covering 13.4% of Metrohub 4’s net lettable area ahead of its opening.

Scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2027, Metrohub 3 comprises two distinct warehouse blocks, totalling circa 840,000 sq ft (approximately 78,000 sqm). One block includes provision for dangerous goods storage, providing customers with greater flexibility to safely handle a wide range of cargo within a single, integrated facility. Demand for storage of dangerous goods is increasing, driven by the rising imports of EV components, particularly lithium batteries, into the Malaysian market.

Dato’ Seri Azmir Merican, Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Sime Darby Property, said, “E-Metro Logistics Park represents a key component of the industrial and logistics ecosystem within Bandar Bukit Raja, one of our flagship industrial townships in Selangor. The development was made possible via the support of the institutional investors in our inaugural RM1 billion Industrial Development Fund, for which we are appreciative. Upon completion of both Metrohubs, the portfolio size within E-Metro Logistics Park will exceed 4.2 million sq ft of modern warehouse space, advancing our portfolio towards high-specification, institutional-grade logistics facilities targeted for multinational tenants.”

Jai Mirpuri, Head of Southeast Asia, ESR, said, “Demand for high-quality logistics infrastructure continues to grow across Southeast Asia, and Malaysia is one of the region’s most compelling markets for that investment. Metrohub 3 and 4 represent the next phase of our commitment here, underpinned by a strong partnership with Sime Darby Property and the continued confidence of our capital partners. E-Metro Logistics Park reflects what customers are looking for as they expand and strengthen their supply chains across the region.”

David Aboud, Head of Malaysia, ESR, said, “Having been in the Malaysian market since 2021, we have taken a long-term view on where logistics demand will concentrate and how it will evolve. Working closely with Sime Darby Property, we have translated that conviction into modern assets that are strategically located and built for future customer needs. The full occupancy of Metrohub 1 and 2, together with the early customer commitment secured at Metrohub 4, demonstrates the strength of what this partnership delivers on the ground.”

Both Metrohub 3 and 4 are designed to meet customers’ evolving sustainability and workplace expectations. Targeting LEED Gold certification, the facilities incorporate features such as provision for solar power generation, EV charging stations, LED lighting, enhanced thermal insulation, and water-efficient fittings. Human-centric features, including staff cafeterias, drivers’ lounges, and the separation of heavy and light vehicle traffic, further support employee well-being, operational efficiency, and safety.
