Boustead Projects has, on May 5, entered into a strategic collaboration to acquire, develop and own a portfolio of logistics and industrial properties in Vietnam.

The collaboration was entered into by the company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, BP-Vietnam Development with Khai Toan Joint Stock Company (KTG).

According to Boustead Projects, KTG is a “strong and reputable local partner with a large industrial real estate footprint in key logistics regions within Vietnam and in particular, has developed and owns numerous industrial real estate assets in the Greater Hanoi and Greater Ho Chi Minh regions.”

The strategic collaboration will strengthen Boustead Projects’ business presence in Vietnam and is made in the ordinary course of its business.

In the same statement, the company adds: “It is Boustead Projects’ intention and objective to further bolster its cooperation and business relationship with KTG through exploring in future, other available and attractive opportunities presented by KTG’s other assets in Vietnam.”

Under the strategic collaboration, BP-Vietnam will acquire a 60% stake in KTG & Boustead Joint Stock Company (KBJSC), which will be transferred from KTG at a consideration of VND651 billion ($39.1 million).
