KUCHING – Hock Seng Lee (HSL) has launched the next phase of its award-winning Vista Industrial Park (VIP), introducing Sarawak’s first-ever three-storey light-industrial lots equipped with factory-grade, heavy-duty lifts—marking a new milestone in the state’s commercial development.
The new phase offers expansive units up to 5,000 sq ft, built to enhance vertical logistics and operational efficiency. Each unit features a lift rated for two-tonne payloads, enabling the smooth movement of raw materials, goods, and equipment across multiple floors—ideal for modern businesses seeking future-ready premises.
“These new units are extra-large and incredibly versatile,” said HSL Executive Director Tony Yu. “With the lift pre-installed, it saves time, boosts safety, and opens up operational possibilities like never before.”
Strategically located along Jalan Setia Raja, VIP borders Sama Jaya High-Tech Park and is accessible to all four major Kuching councils—North, South, Samarahan, and Padawan—making it one of the city’s most connected industrial zones.
Since launching in 2019, the 200-acre VIP estate has attracted over 150 businesses, including household names like Tastinity, GT3, Mdm Tang, and Sarawak Energy’s precision testing unit. VIP was named Best Commercial Development at the 2019 Sheda Excellence Awards.
According to HSL architect Joseph Chai, the decision to build vertically was driven by client feedback and internal studies.
“A third floor is the most cost-effective way to future-proof light-industrial property,” he explained. “Tenants can add showrooms, admin suites, or R&D labs upstairs—no need to buy extra land.”
Every unit continues VIP’s hallmark features: container-sized doors, high floor loading capacity, three-phase power readiness, and generous ceiling heights for efficient storage and logistics. The estate also boasts fibre-optic readiness, ensuring reliable high-speed connectivity—vital for digitally driven businesses.
Landscaping is another key feature, with a tree-lined boulevard and a 3.3-acre Central Park providing a clean, organised environment. The wide dual-carriageway main road and internal streets are designed for seamless heavy vehicle movement.
Among current VIP tenants are Life Café, NOMS, Maica, Ample Marketing, Repsol, Flying Ads, and ShangAgro.
Prices for the new lots start at RM1.65 million. In response to popular demand, HSL is reintroducing its Rent-to-Own (RTO) programme—previously fully subscribed. This scheme allows SMEs to convert three years of rent into equity with minimal upfront capital, offering an alternative path to ownership.
One reason our RTO is so successful is that it locks in today’s price,” said Angie Joan, HSL’s Sales and Marketing Assistant Manager. “Nearly all my RTO clients have gone on to become full owners.
A public showcase of the new units runs from 26 to 27 July at the Vista Industrial Park, featuring furnished show units and live demos by current tenants.
HSL, a Sarawak-based construction giant with over 40 years of experience, is also known for major infrastructure projects like the Pan Borneo Highway and La Promenade, East Malaysia’s largest gated community.
