Fifteen freehold strata-titled retail units in a Bedok-area mixed development, East Village, have been put up for sale for S$71.8 million. According to checks by The Business Times, these units are held by World Class Developments and entities or individuals linked to the Koh family behind Catalist-listed Aspial Corp. East Village, completed in 2014, is a five-storey freehold development built by World Class Developments, a unit of Aspial Corporation. Aspial, whose business spans jewellery retail, pawnbroking and real estate, is helmed by Koh Wee Seng, brother of Fragrance Group’s executive chairman, James Koh Wee Meng.    The development comprises 108 retail units on the ground floor and 90 residential units above the retail podium. It is near several landed estates, and Tanah Merah MRT station is a 15-minute walk away. The 15 shop units being marketed were first put up for sale in 2022, as part of a 17-unit cluster, for S$83 million. Two units were sold in May 2025 to an individual buyer.  The current guide price of S$71.8 million translates to about S$4,110 per square foot (psf), based on the units’ total strata area of 17,482 square feet (sq ft), marketing agent CBRE said on Wednesday (Aug 20).   The individual units range from 431 sq ft to 6,985 sq ft, and can be purchased as part of the portfolio or separately. Twelve units have main-road frontage, outdoor refreshment areas and direct access to the carpark.  All units are currently leased, providing immediate rental income and potential for capital appreciation and rental upside, CBRE said.  Eleven units have approved food & beverage (F&B) usage, and one is a clinic; an Anytime Fitness gym occupies three adjoining units. Tenants include Liho, Katong Mei Wei Chicken Rice and Hong Kong Street Family Restaurant.     Joshua Giam, CBRE’s director of capital markets, said: “We have been witnessing strong demand for commercial properties, with the reduction of borrowing cost since the start of the year.” The layout of the units, which have dedicated entrances and frontage access, mean tenants can carry out their business activities independent of the mall’s standard operating hours, he added.  The most recent retail transaction in East Village took place in July, when a 161 sq ft unit changed hands for S$500,000 or S$3,097 psf.  The expression-of-interest exercise for the 15 units closes on Sep 18.  Fragrance Group founder and chairman James Koh owns hospitality, office, industrial and other assets, mainly in Singapore, through various privately-held entities. In 2021, he privatised the SGX-listed Fragrance Group, which also holds commercial property in Australia and the United Kingdom. Through a business entity known as AF Global, James Koh and Koh Wee Seng own a 55 per cent stake in property consultancy, Knight Frank Singapore.  In October 2023, entities linked to James Koh bought two freehold industrial buildings for nearly S$101 million. BT reported that he paid S$61 million for a five-storey property at 3 New Industrial Road, in the Upper Paya Lebar-Bartley area. The other property he bought, at nearly S$40 million, is at 3 Kallang Pudding Road.  Last year, Fragrance Group acquired Katong Plaza for S$180 million or S$1,809 psf. The group plans to redevelop it into a hotel.
