Chin Hin and PTT Synergy Form Joint Venture to Develop Smart Warehouses and Digital Logistics Hubs

KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 7, 2025) — Chin Hin Group Bhd has announced a strategic partnership with PTT Synergy Group Bhd to jointly develop smart warehouses, industrial parks, and next-generation logistics hubs across Malaysia.

Under a joint venture and shareholders’ agreement, Chin Hin will hold a majority stake in the new entity, with PTT Synergy retaining the remaining 49%. The collaboration marks a major step forward for both companies as they seek to leverage artificial intelligence (AI), automation, robotics, digital twin technologies, and sustainable energy systems in shaping Malaysia’s industrial future.

Driving Malaysia’s Transition Toward Smart Industrial Infrastructure

According to Chin Hin’s filing with Bursa Malaysia, the partnership will accelerate the group’s entry into automated warehousing and intelligent logistics solutions by tapping into PTT Synergy’s proprietary automation technologies and software platforms.

This move positions Chin Hin to strengthen its foothold in Malaysia’s rapidly evolving industrial and logistics property segment, especially within growth corridors such as Selangor, Subang, and Puchong, where demand for modern industrial properties and smart factories is rising sharply.

“This collaboration enables us to expand our industrial capabilities and explore new business opportunities by integrating technology-driven solutions into our construction and logistics divisions,” Chin Hin said in a statement.

The company added that the venture is designed to generate recurring income streams through long-term leasing of smart warehouse and logistics facilities, while enhancing operational sustainability through energy-efficient designs and green building systems.

Synergy Between Innovation and Industry

PTT Synergy, known for its expertise in automation and industrial systems, described the venture as a strategic alignment of strengths — combining Chin Hin’s property development and construction experience with its own technological innovation in logistics automation.

“This partnership is about capturing the rising demand for automated, sustainable logistics infrastructure across Malaysia and Southeast Asia,” the company said, highlighting how the collaboration aligns with the region’s broader shift toward smart manufacturing and digital supply chain ecosystems.

Industry Outlook and Market Performance

The announcement reflects a growing trend of industrial developers integrating technology into logistics real estate, mirroring the surge of interest in industrial land in Selangor and industrial property in the Subang area, as investors seek assets that combine efficiency, automation, and sustainability.

Such developments are expected to influence future demand across Malaysia’s key logistics corridors — particularly factories in Puchong, commercial properties in KL, and office spaces in Bukit Jalil — where digital infrastructure and green energy adoption are becoming central to business decision-making.

Ahead of the announcement, Chin Hin’s shares slipped three sen or 1.3% to RM2.24, valuing the company at RM7.93 billion, while PTT Synergy’s stock remained unchanged at RM1.42, with a market capitalization of RM613.7 million.
