Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. announced that it is investing in the development of an automated logistics facility in Singapore, “OMEGA 1 Singapore”. This investment is made through MOL’s existing interest in CapitaLand SEA Logistics Fund (CSLF)(note 1) which is managed by CapitaLand Investment (CLI; Head Office: Singapore), a leading global real asset manager with a strong Asia foothold.
This facility will be equipped with state-of-the-art technologies such as robotics, an automated storage and retrieval system and automated guided vehicles to support efficient end-to-end inventory management. This fully integrated automation ecosystem represents a significant leap forward in transforming traditional logistics operations into a highly intelligent and future-ready model.
Additionally, OMEGA 1 Singapore will incorporate environmentally friendly design features and sustainable operational processes and targets to achieve Green Mark GoldPlus certification (note 2). Strategically located in the established Jurong Industrial estate, an area with a history of consistently high tenant occupancy and sustained logistical activity, the facility benefits from a strong and resilient operational environment. With access to major expressways and proximity to Tuas Checkpoint, Jurong Port and Tuas Mega port, OMEGA 1 Singapore is optimally positioned to play a pivotal role in advancing domestic logistics efficiency and regional trade integration.
Upon completion, the facility will be 100% master-leased to one of CSLF’s capital partners, Ally Logistic Property (ALP; Head Office : Taiwan), a pioneer in smart logistics infrastructure based in Asia known for its OMEGA (note 3) warehouse model.
This investment aligns with MOL Group’s BLUE ACTION 2035 management plan, under which the Group is reforming its business portfolio to enhance stable profit-earning businesses and ensure profitability even during ocean shipping recessions. As part of this strategy, the group is expanding its logistics and industrial business, particularly through the growth of its “Logistics Infrastructure”(Note 4) segment. In line with the management plan’s promotion of Regional Strategy to shift to a global business structure, these business investment projects are led by the Regional Organization for Southeast Asia and Oceania.
