According to Nicholas Mak, ERA head of research & consultancy, the buyers of these central kitchen units include food caterers, food outlet operators and investors. “Some buyers were competing to buy all the units on an entire floor so that they could consolidate their food production operations there,” he says.

Last October, the conservation building at 265 Outram Road was offered for sale at $50 million, which worked out to $2,733 psf based on the gross floor area of 18,295 sq ft. It was marketed by Colliers International then. The expression of interest ended on Nov 19, 2021, and the owner, Chiu Teng Group, has since decided to launch the units for sale individually.
The building is located within the Tiong Bahru Secondary Settlement conservation area and occupies a freehold area of 6,125 sq ft. It is zoned for residential use with commercial usage at the first storey.
