Partners Group and Hillhouse-backed EZA Hill acquire $238m Singapore logistics portfolio

Partners Group and EZA Hill Property Management, backed by Hillhouse Investment’s real asset arm Rava Partners, have agreed to acquire four industrial and logistics properties in Singapore for S$306m ($238m), Bloomberg reports.

The assets, covering over 186,000 square metres, were sold by CapitaLand Ascendas REIT at a 21% premium to their original purchase price and a 6% premium to valuation. Partners Group will take a majority stake in the portfolio, which adds to growing private equity activity in Singapore’s logistics sector.

“This transaction reflects the sustained momentum in Singapore’s industrial and logistics market, driven by a strong local currency and favourable lending conditions,” said Loh Lee Fen, CBRE’s Head of Singapore Industrial Capital Markets, who brokered the deal.

In a separate divestment, the REIT is selling an empty industrial building for S$23m to another buyer. The divestments are expected to close in Q4 2025.

The acquisition builds on EZA Hill’s regional expansion, following its $148m purchase of an Indonesian logistics portfolio last year. It also highlights strong institutional demand for the sector, with Brookfield and Warburg Pincus-backed Vita Partners among the other recent investors in Singapore industrial real estate.
