Analysis

Hicom Glenmarie is the developer’s maiden industrial project. After the success of this project, the group has developed Pekan Industrial Park, Hicom Industrial Park in Shah Alam (which became Proton’s main assembly plant) and Modenas Industrial Park in Gurun. Besides industrial projects, DRB-Hicom is also highly involved in numerous commercial and residential developments.

Due to many offices in the area, traffic congestion is terrible on all highways surrounding it during rush hours. This is troublesome for logistics as lorries and trucks have to clear before rush hours; otherwise they will be trapped in traffic for hours.
