Wharf Real Estate Investment Co. Ltd.
Industry Group: Real Estate
Country/Region: Hong Kong
Identifier: HKG:1997
Wharf spun off Wharf Real Estate Investment Co. in November 2017. It is a leading property investor with a focus on prime retail assets in Hong Kong. Rental income from flagship assets Harbour City and Times Square accounts for about 80% of revenue. The balance comes from The Murray hotel, suburban mall Plaza Hollywood, and two offices in the central business district. The group also holds two malls in Singapore and a mixed development in Suzhou. Wharf was originally a shipping company but transformed into a property developer and investor in the 1960s by redeveloping its unused industrial assets, many located in city center and waterfront locations. The Harbour City site had been wharfs, and the Times Square site was a tram depot in the 1970s. Wheelock holds a 45% stake in the group.
