OPERATING DIVISIONS: Portfolio Highlights
Our current retail, commercial and residential properties provide a foundation on which to build. There is stronger focus on development with the primary aim of further unlocking and enhancing shareholder value.
And we have already embarked on this path.
Retail
Mandarin Gallery, which underwent a year of extensive renovation from June 2008 to November 2009, now has returned to the heart of Singapore's very own fashion runway on Orchard with a $200 million facelift. It offers a vibrant mix of 103 fashion, lifestyle and food & beverage tenants - both international and local.
Since its soft opening in November 2009, the Group has rolled marketing and promotional activities to continuously reward and engage both target and general customers who shop in the mall. These activities will continue to position Mandarin Gallery as the icon of prestigious shopping and lifestyle.
