Call for Tenants for E-commerce Specialized Zone at Incheon Port Aam Logistics Complex 2

Incheon Port Authority (IPA) announced on the 15th that it will hold a public recruitment for tenant companies in the e-commerce specialized zone of the Aam Logistics Complex 2 until the 28th of next month. The recruitment target sites are two parcels within the specialized zone, with areas of 42,462㎡ and 22,773㎡ respectively.

Previously, IPA adopted proposals from two logistics companies in December last year and established a basic business plan. This recruitment plan was prepared to provide a fair opportunity to third parties as well.

The evaluation of business plans will be conducted based on the same criteria as the initial proposal project evaluation, and the initial proposing companies will receive additional points (within 10% of the eligibility review committee score). If no proposals from third parties are received, the initial proposing companies will be selected as the preferred negotiation candidates after review and resolution by the Port Committee.

Companies wishing to participate in the recruitment can check the participation conditions, business plan evaluation criteria, and facility construction conditions on the IPA website before applying.

The Aam Logistics Complex 2 was designated as the first e-commerce specialized zone among national ports in August 2020, with a total area of 250,000㎡. Previously, three logistics companies were selected as tenants for three other parcels (about 102,000㎡) within the specialized zone, and have signed land lease contracts or business promotion contracts with IPA.

Kim Sang-gi, Vice President of IPA's Operations Division, said, "The e-commerce specialized zone, which was attempted for the first time in Korea, is being stably established," and added, "We will make various efforts to support tenant companies in line with the increasing trend of specialized cargo and strive to strengthen the logistics competitiveness of Incheon Port."
