They are fully geared up to expand their condominium development investments in Thailand backed by a richly-funded JV company with a registered capital of Bht 12,619,408,010 – all in anticipation of a recovery in the growing market for city-centre condominiums along the mass rapid transit lines as both of them work to share their industry know-how and expertise to lift up the quality of condominium development in Thailand’s middle to high end of the market to ensure all home-owners can have Cheevit Dee Dee Tee Lueak Eng Dai.

Mr. Anuphong Assavabhokhin, CEO, AP Thailand Public Co., Ltd., said that the 10th anniversary of the partnership between Mitsubishi Estate and AP Thailand is a very proud occasion for AP Thailand and it also marks an important milestone that reflects the strength of the joint venture in terms of competiveness and the growth potential of Thailand’s property development sector in comparison to elsewhere in the world.

The partnership between AP Thailand and Mitsubishi Estate is the first and only of its kind in the industry to have a business model where the partners formed a 51:49 joint venture company in Thailand named Premium Residence Company Limited to be the main company to invest in residential development projects in the long term. The company currently has a registered capital of Bht 12,619,408,010.

Above all else, the partnership has contributed enormously to Thailand’s property sector in terms of the amount of investment funds involved in driving the industry creating employment at over 100 companies in the Thai industrial ecosystem, the exchange of knowhow between the partners as well as the sharing of business visions and corporate social responsibility. It is extremely difficult for a short-term joint venture to make such a contribution to society.

“Mitsubishi Estate is unique not just in terms of size and global experience, their executives also have a long-term vision and are ready to work with us for the advancement of Thailand’s property development sector. Also, they immensely inspire AP Thailand’s team to do better with residential developments so our products and services can be part of a good life home-owners lead on their own terms,” added Mr. Anuphong.

Mr. Atsushi Nakajima, President & Chief Executive Officer, Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd., said Mitsubishi Estate’s overseas business started about 40 years ago with real estate development in Europe and the United States.

“Today we have real estate business in many countries and regions in Europe, the United States and Asia which we are currently focusing our investment in. Out of the Asian countries, Thailand is an extremely important base for our overseas business, blessed with an attractive market environment and business opportunities with our excellent partner company, AP Thailand

Throughout 10 years of JV business, we have deepened our mutual understanding of corporate culture and philosophy and enabled to share know-how and ways of managing business from a long-term perspective. This is something that we could not achieve through project to project basis partnership.

As of now, we are strengthening our efforts to implement an inclusive design into the development of the project.
