TRX's Exchange 106 expects first tenants in December

KUALA LUMPUR: The developer of newly opened Exchange 106 at Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) is confident of growing its committed floorspace to up to 1.3 million sq ft by end 2020.

Patrick Honan, general manager of property management of Mulia Property Development Sdn Bhd, said it has confirmed about 500,000 sq ft of floorspace at present with the first tenants expected to move in by December this year and the remainder in the first half of 2020.

"This includes a top five Fortune 500 global consulting firm, a Hong Kong-based multinational personal care brand, some of the world's most recognised e-commerce platforms and one of the most globally renowned serviced office and co-working brands with the largest network of over 3,000 locations in 120 countries," he added.

Exchange 106 was recently awarded a Certificate of Completion and Compliance for the lower half of the building, which is now open for occupation by tenants.

According to the developer, the 106-floor building aims to bring the energy and drive of international hubs like Canary Wharf, New York's World Trade Centre towers and Shanghai's International Finance Centre to this part of the world.

Standing at 492 metres, it is the tallest building in the country and the sixth tallest office building in the world.
