July 10, 2012

Mitsubishi Corp. announced July 10 that it has agreed to participate in a large-scale condominium development project in Dalian, China, through a joint venture with Gemdale, a leading real estate developer in China.

The total cost of the project is estimated at 66 billion yen ($829.9 million).

The project includes the development of 3,500 condominium units, as well as retail stores in Dalian, with a population of more than 6 million, the second largest city in Liaoning province.

By investing 5 billion yen through a property investment company in Hong Kong, Mitsubishi will obtain a 40-percent equity interest in this project.

Mitsubishi has been focusing on the increasing residence demand in Dalian, mainly for the middle class. The project plans to build low-rise buildings and spacious rooms intended to attract first-time buyers and those seeking to improve their living environment.
