<\/p>\nSINGAPORE \u2013 10 October 2017 \u2013 SUTL Enterprise Limited (\u201cSUTL Enterprise\u201d, the \u201cCompany\u201d or together with its subsidiaries the \u201cGroup\u201d), a leading marina developer, operator, and consultant and owner of the ONE\u00b015 brand, has secured its second management contract in China for an upcoming integrated marina, which will be located at Sanshan Island in Taihu Lake, Suzhou (the \u201cProject\u201d).<\/p>\n
The contract is for a period of 10 years and is awarded by Suzhou Taihu SanShan Island Marina Development Company Pte. Ltd. (\u82cf\u5dde\u592a\u6e56\u4e09\u5c71\u5c9b\u6e38\u8247\u53d1\u5c55\u6709\u9650\u516c\u53f8) (\u201cSTSIM\u201d), which is the master developer for the Project and holds the land and water rights for the to-be built waterfront development. The Project will comprise a private marina, yacht membership club and marina facilities. Plans for the clubhouse include food and beverage and recreational amenities, hotel accommodations, lifestyle stores, spa, fitness centre, chandlery and service related businesses.<\/p>\n
Located just 45km from Suzhou City Centre and easily accessible by car and a short ferry ride, the new marina on Sanshan Island will carry SUTL Enterprise\u2019s ONE\u00b015 brand. The Group will be involved in the conceptualization, design and specifications and pre-opening management of the marina. Post-opening, it will manage the day-to-day operations of the marina, the facilities at the marina, as well as club membership sale and related matters.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With an area of 3.8km2, Sanshan Island is a popular tourist destination. It has been accorded the highest level tourist attraction rating of AAAAA by the China National Tourism Administration (CNTA). It has also been given various national accolades including the status of \u201cNational Geological Park\u201d, \u201cNational Wetland\u201d, \u201cMost beautiful Leisure Village in China\u201d, \u201cCultural and Historical Village\u2019, \u201cModel for China\u2019s Low Carbon Tourism\u201d and \u201cChinese traditional Village\u201d.<\/p>\n
Commenting on the Project, SUTL Enterprise Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr Arthur Tay, said: \u201cSanshan Island is known as a \u2018natural oxygen bar\u2019 as it enjoys more than 350 days of excellent air quality per year. It attracts more than 1 million visitors annually, with visitor numbers increasing more than 10% year-on-year. Located within the affluent Yangtze River Delta region, it is easily accessible and located close to economic powerhouse cities such as Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Wuxi and Ningbo with their affluent populace, which is our target market. We are very excited to be working with STSIM on this project. We believe that having a well managed integrated marina club will enhance Sanshan Island\u2019s tourism appeal and attract a new segment of visitors with high spending power.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Project is SUTL Enterprise\u2019s second marina management contract in China. The Group is currently providing consultancy and management services to another marina under construction in Guishan, Zhuhai, China, which is scheduled to be completed in 2019 and will be named ONE\u00b015 Marina Guishan.<\/p>\n
Separately, the Group had also inked a Memorandum of Understanding with the Hainan Cruise & Yacht Association (\u201cHCYA\u201d) on 12 September 2017, to exchange ideas for the purpose of developing and expanding Hainan Island\u2019s leisure marina industry.<\/p>\n
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in yachting and the waterfront lifestyle among the wealthy in China. A report by Global Industry Analysts forecasted that China would register the fastest compound annual growth rate of 8.1% between 2015 and 2022 driven by growing number of wealthy individuals and rising interest in yachting.<\/p>\n
Mr Tay said: \u201cThis new contract in Suzhou comes hot on the heels of the Memorandum of Understanding that we just signed with HCYA. All these developments show that China is very serious about growing its yachting and cruising industry. As a company with a mission to promote the waterfront and yachting lifestyle in Asia, we are heartened to observe a lot more interest from developers as well as the provincial governments to build marina infrastructure along China\u2019s coastal regions.\u201d<\/p>\n
SUTL Enterprise\u2019s vision is to be the leading premier integrated marina developer and the Group aims to establish a string of marinas worldwide under its ONE\u00b015 brand. Its portfolio comprises ONE\u00b015 Marina Sentosa Cove Singapore and ONE\u00b015 Brooklyn Marina in Brooklyn, New York, USA.<\/p>\n
The Group also has a robust pipeline with consultancy and management contracts for ONE\u00b015 marinas currently under construction including the Indonesian Navy Club managed by ONE\u00b015 in Jakarta; a marina in Boom Banyuwangi in East Java; ONE\u00b015 Marina Guishan in Zhuhai, China; and an agreement with UEM Sunrise Berhad to incorporate a joint venture company to develop a public marina, a private marina and a superyacht marina in Puteri Harbour of Iskandar Puteri in Iskandar Malaysia, Johor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
