Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK), a leading global real estate services firm, has been appointed as the exclusive leasing and marketing agent for the CMC Creative Space Hochiminh office building, located in District 7, Ho Chi Minh City. The exclusive partnership signing ceremony between Cushman & Wakefield and CMC Corporation took place on Wednesday, June 11, 2025.
The CMC Creative Space Hochiminh is a modern building with a total area of 30,000 sqm, which was completed and has been operational since Q3 2024. Featuring a cutting-edge design and modern amenities, the 12-story building offers large floor plates of up to 1,600 sqm each, along with a spacious parking area. Located within the Tan Thuan Export Processing Zone, the building is fully equipped with modern conveniences and offers excellent connectivity to the city center. Notably, CMC Creative Space Hochiminh is proud to be a green building that incorporates 4.0 digital technologies, providing a sustainable and efficient working environment.
Mr. Le Thanh Son, Executive Vice President of CMC Corporation, said:
"Partnering with Cushman & Wakefield is a significant step forward in our development strategy. We believe that the synergy between CMC Creative Space Hochiminh and Cushman & Wakefield will create exceptional value for our clients and partners."
The office market in Ho Chi Minh City is experiencing strong growth with a continuous increase in new supply. In 2025, the city is expected to welcome an additional 165,000 sqm of new office space from projects in both CBD and non-CBD areas. Areas such as District 7 and Thu Thiem are emerging as the city's new financial and commercial hubs, attracting numerous businesses in the manufacturing, IT, retail, finance, and healthcare sectors.
Ms. Trang Bui, Country Head of Cushman & Wakefield Vietnam, said:
"We are honored to partner with CMC Corporation on this project. According to Q1 2025 data, the city-wide office occupancy rate is already over 89%. Consequently, tenants face significant challenges in finding high-quality, cost-effective office buildings like CMC Creative Space Hochiminh. With its large floor plates and proximity to the CMC Tan Thuan Data Center, the building is highly suitable for establishing Global Capability Centers (GCCs) for multinational corporations, Research and Development (R&D) Centers, Innovation Hubs, and other IT-related operations. We are confident that with our experience and expertise, Cushman & Wakefield will deliver optimal leasing solutions for businesses."
The exclusive partnership signing ceremony was attended by senior leaders from both companies and distinguished guests.
