PETALING JAYA: Heng Guan Development (HGD) has secured five anchor tenants for its upcoming development, Aera Business Centre, the commercial component of the 150-acre Aera township in North Sungai Petani, Kedah.
The anchor tenants are FamilyMart, ZUS Coffee, Momoyo, Nasi Kandar Danial and Alyaa Bistro, representing a curated mix of established national and regional brands and setting the tone for the township’s first commercial precinct.
Targeted for completion in the second quarter of 2026, the project has achieved nearly 70% take-up to date, reflecting strong pre-leasing momentum and sustained market confidence.
“Aera Business Centre marks the beginning of a new Aera. Achieving close to 70% take-up ahead of completion reflects strong market confidence in both our product positioning and the growth potential of Sungai Petani North. Securing established anchor brands at this stage allows us to curate a vibrant commercial mix, drive sustainable footfall and lay a strong foundation for the township’s next phase of growth,” said chief executive officer Lim Tiong Haan.
Aera Business Centre will be delivered in tandem with Aera Gardens, a residential development comprising 129 units. The larger Aera township is being developed in five phases with full completion targeted by 2032.
