Parkson Retail Group is preparing to occupy a complex above Nanjing Railway Station in Chinese Jiangxi.

The group, a Hong Kong-listed firm controlled by Malaysian Parkson Holdings Bhd, won its US$6.1 million bid for the tenancy of buildings above the Bayi Guan Station of the Nanchang Rail Transit Line 1 in the city.

The 12-year tenancy will allow a 42,903sqm retail space for the firm, although no formal agreement on the tenancy has been signed as of yet.

A statement from the firm read: “The tenancy, if materialised, may constitute a discloseable transaction for PRGL,” given its alignment with the firm’s development strategy for the province.
