Frasers Property began its journey in 1980 as the property division of Cold Storage Limited, laying the groundwork for what would become a multinational real estate group. The launch of The Centrepoint in 1983 marked its first major development, establishing a presence in Singapore’s retail landscape. Over the next two decades, the company expanded into business parks with Alexandra Technopark, residential projects like The Anchorage, and ventured overseas with developments in Australia, the UK, and Vietnam – signalling its ambition beyond domestic borders.
The early 2000s saw Frasers Property deepen its roots through strategic consolidation. In 2002, it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Fraser and Neave Limited, enabling tighter alignment and resource integration. The launch of Frasers Centrepoint Trust in 2006 and the acquisition of Allco REIT (later rebranded as Frasers Commercial Trust) expanded its capital platform. The company also entered China with Jingan Four Seasons and, in 2013, joined the TCC Group, marking a pivotal shift in ownership and regional influence.
This period marked Frasers Property’s transformation into a global player. In 2014, it was relisted as Frasers Property Limited, and acquired Australand, rebranding it as Frasers Property Australia. The launch of Frasers Hospitality Trust and acquisitions of boutique hotel brands Malmaison and Hotel du Vin in the UK expanded its hospitality footprint.
The Group entered the industrial REIT space with FLT, and built its European logistics platform through acquisitions of Geneba and Alpha Industrial. It also invested in the co-working sector with JustCo and GIC, and scaled its Thailand operations – rebranding TICON and acquiring Golden Land – to form a fully integrated platform. Strategic platforms like Frasers Property Industrial and Frasers Property Retail were established to unify operations and drive growth.
Frasers Property emerged as a leader in sustainability and innovation. In 2021, it became the first SGX-listed real estate company to commit to net-zero carbon by 2050, addressing all three scopes of emissions. The launch of Frasers eStore and the recognition of Burwood Brickworks as the world’s most sustainable shopping centre showcased its digital and environmental leadership.
The Group also issued its first sustainability notes in the SGD bond market, was named a Champion of Good, and launched its corporate purpose:
“Inspiring experiences, creating places for good.”
These milestones reflect a deepening commitment to ESG, community impact, and purpose-led growth.
Recent years have focused on strengthening capital partnerships and expanding regional leadership. The formation of Frasers Property Capital in 2023 signalled a strategic push toward institutional capital alignment. The Group made maiden acquisitions in premium rental apartments in Shenzhen and Osaka, and achieved strong GRESB scores, with Regional Sector Leader recognition for Singapore and Australia.
In 2024, FCT joined the FTSE STI, and both FLCT and FCT ranked among the top 10 largest Singapore REITs. The opening of One Bangkok, Thailand’s largest integrated mixed-use development, marked a new era in placemaking, urban innovation and smart city living.
