What Wharf Real Estate Investment does

Wharf Real Estate Investment Company (Wharf REIC) is a Hong Kong commercial property owner, with roots going back to 1886 and its headquarters in Kowloon. Its portfolio centres on two flagship complexes: Harbour City, a large waterfront development with shops, offices, serviced apartments, hotels, clubs and car parks, and Times Square, a retail and office complex. Other holdings include Wheelock House and Crawford House, The Murray hotel, the Plaza Hollywood mall, and the Wheelock Place and Scotts Square malls in Singapore. The company reports through four segments: Investment Properties, Development Properties, Hotel, and Investment. Most of the business comes from leasing and managing retail, office and serviced-apartment space, with further income from hotels, property and equity investments, and the Star Ferry's two inner-harbour routes. Because so much of its income depends on Hong Kong's retail and office markets, local tourism and consumer spending have a large effect on results.
