In the last five years, noted developers AMB, Gazeley, New City and Mapletree began projects in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Ningbo, Suzhou and other major mainland cities. They not only build professional facilities for the "Made in China" enterprises, but also provide solid infrastructure for the rapidly developing logistics industry in China.
