Zhengzhou Longma owns two sites out of the four land parcels that comprise Tianrong Fashion City. The two land sites have a total site area of about 12,000 sq m.
CentraLand said it paid 360 million yuan (S$74 million) for the stake, and it intends to redevelop Tianrong Fashion City and its surrounding area into a new commercial development.
According to an independent valuation commissioned by CentraLand, the open market value of the site was 632 million renminbi (S$129.6 million) as of end-May.
CentraLand said the acquisition of the property was funded by the company’s internal resources.
