- Background behind project launch
Together with Sojitz Corporation and Kobelco Eco-Solutions Co., Ltd., Daiwa House has been involved in industrial park development and facility construction in Dong Nai Province in southern Vietnam since 2011. Since 2012, Daiwa House has operated an outsourcing business in the capital city of Hanoi.
In March 2015, Nomura Real Estate established Nomura Real Estate Asia Pte. Ltd. as a local subsidiary in Singapore to serve as a base of operations for real estate development in Southeast Asia and from which to create business opportunities. In 2010, Sumitomo Forestry established Vina Eco Board Co., Ltd. as a local subsidiary in Vietnam to begin the manufacturing and sale of particle boards. (*3)
(*3) Particle board is an engineered wood product, which is formed mainly from wood particles by hot pressing with adhesives.
As Vietnam continues to enjoy economic growth, the need for condominium housing is growing. And with the enactment of the Revised Housing Act in July 2015, the restrictions on real estate purchases by foreigners have been eased, which is expected to lead to further growth in the housing market.
Daiwa House, Nomura Real Estate, and Sumitomo Forestry partnered with major local developer Phu My Hung Co. to launch a condominium development project targeting company executives, senior professional people and expatriates in Vietnam.
Phu My Hung Co. began a major urban development project in District 7 of Ho Chi Minh City in 1993. Today, the area stands as the most developed district in Ho Chi Minh City. We will combine the knowledge and know-how of Daiwa House, Nomura Real Estate, and Sumitomo Forestry with Phu My Hung Co.'s experience in the Vietnam to provide high-end value-added residential living unlike anything the region has ever seen.
Daiwa House, Nomura Real Estate, Sumitomo Forestry and Phu My Hung Co. will use this project as a launching point for future business expansion.
