PTT Synergy Group Bhd and Koperasi Kakitangan Bank Rakyat Bhd (Sekatarakyat) have commenced development of the Sekata E-Logistics Park in Pontian, Johor, positioning the project to capture growing logistics demand from businesses operating across the Malaysia-Singapore supply chain.
The development comprising five single-storey industrial warehouse units designed to support efficient, flexible and technology-ready logistics operations.
The project is strategically positioned to benefit from the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ), as businesses increasingly seek warehousing facilities closer to Singapore to improve inventory management, delivery efficiency and cross-border connectivity.
PTT Synergy Executive Chairman Datuk Ts Abd Rahim Jaafar said the development would create a strategic logistics base for businesses seeking faster access to Singapore’s regional trade and distribution network.
“By positioning inventory closer to the market, businesses can respond faster to demand and improve supply chain efficiency,” he said.
He added that the groundbreaking signalled the transformation of the partnership into a tangible economic investment capable of supporting businesses and generating long-term value.
Sekatarakyat Chairman Datuk Mustafha Abd Razak said Pontian’s strategic location presented opportunities to expand the district’s industrial and logistics activities.
He said the investment could also create new business opportunities, employment and supporting economic activities for local communities.
Developed under PTT Space’s industrial infrastructure platform, the logistics park will incorporate sustainable features, including rainwater harvesting systems and electric vehicle charging facilities.
The development combines PTT Synergy’s expertise in infrastructure, industrial development and warehouse solutions with Sekatarakyat’s long-term investment approach.
Beyond meeting growing logistics requirements, the project is expected to diversify Pontian’s economic base and strengthen its integration into southern Johor’s expanding industrial corridor.
The investment represents another step in building the region’s logistics capacity as businesses seek to capitalise on closer Malaysia-Singapore economic integration under the JS-SEZ.
