With a name that is easy to remember and trusted — Harrison Food Building, a freehold B2 food factory at 9 Harrison Road, is already making its mark in Singapore’s prime District 13. With TOP expected in 2028, Harrison Food Building offers a strong brand manifested in a modern design and a stately façade that brings new energy to its vibrant surroundings. Purpose-built for today’s demanding food production needs, this B2 strata-titled development will set a new standard for operational efficiency and long-term value in one of the country’s most established food production hubs.

Harrison: Everything you need for a food factory

Built to meet the ever-growing demands of thriving food businesses, this low-density development is designed for operational efficiency with priority on functionality, hygiene, regulatory compliance and streamlined logistics.

Harrison Food Building is set to redefine the standard of freehold food factories with high-end specifications and purpose-built facilities to support diverse business needs — from food manufacturing and production to central kitchen operations, with cold-chain capabilities.

“Business owners operating from Harrison Food Building will benefit from a modern, efficient and future-proof operating environment, with lower risk of disruption as compared with other existing food factories,” highlights Leslie Lam, Senior Marketing Director, ERA.

Setting itself apart from conventional food factories, Harrison Food Building boasts the following features:

1. Freehold tenure: Its central location and freehold status in limited supply

2. Prime location: Just a 5-minute walk from Tai Seng MRT station and a 15-minute drive to town with convenient access to mains roads including Aljunied, Paya Lebar and Macpherson, and major expressways including Pan-Island Expressway (PIE), Central Expressway (CTE), Kallang Paya-Lebar Expressway (KPE) and Bartley Road East Viaduct, for convenient staff commute and efficient logistics

3. Smart ramp-up: Gentle ramp design that smoothly leads all the way up to the 8th floor, enabling easy vehicle access to all levels without the challenges of steep ramps found in developments constrained by land size

4. Dedicated loading bays on ground floor: Convenient loading and unloading bays facilitate efficient delivery operations and quick turnaround without disrupting traffic flow within the building

5. Wide dual-lane driveways and separate access points: Wide dual-lane driveways on every level help minimise traffic congestion, while separate entrances and exits on Harrison Road and Burn Road maintain smooth vehicle movement throughout the building

6. Future-ready infrastructure: Built to accommodate central kitchens, cold-chain storage, high-spec food manufacturing, and automation integration

7. Private en-suite toilets and waste bin chutes: Each unit includes private toilets and dedicated waste disposal chutes, enhancing hygiene and occupant convenience.

Cutting-edge design with high-spec features

Harrison Food Building features 42 strata-titled production units, ranging from approximately 1,615 to 1,808 sq ft on the upper floors and 2,486 to 2,573 sq ft on the ground floor. Selected units offer ceiling heights above six metres and mezzanine options, ideal for office or additional storage needs.

Harrison Food Building’s advanced infrastructure design facilitates optimal logistical flows, together with space layouts that incorporate hygiene zoning and provision for automation integration, offering a forward-looking solution for businesses — whether it is for a central kitchen, cold-chain storage, food processing or high-end spec manufacturing.

The floor plates in each unit prioritise efficiency, functionality and comfort, with abundant natural light that streams through the curtain-wall glass façades, complemented by energy-efficient ventilation and exhaust systems that promote sustainability.

Beyond its functional design, the development offers a spacious ground-floor canteen and a sky terrace — ideal for informal gatherings, staff breaks, or wellness activities, fostering a vibrant community spirit within the building.

Rare freehold investment with attractive tax benefits

With freehold status uncommon in Singapore’s industrial market, Harrison Food Building presents an exceptional investment opportunity. The property is zoned B2 industrial use, and buyers enjoy exemptions from Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD), and Seller’s Stamp Duty (SSD) from the fourth year, which makes it appealing to both local and foreign investors.

“With strong demand and limited supply of freehold food factories in central Singapore, its freehold title presents a compelling opportunity as a rare long-term industrial asset for investors," adds ERA’s Lam.
