Office Space for Rent with Private Entrance in Kaki Bukit.
tl;dr
- Space
- 1,500 sqm (16,146 sq ft) basement showroom and office floor for rent in Kaki Bukit, Singapore, arranged as one open common area plus three enclosed rooms behind a private lobby entrance with access control. The character is industrial and utility led, a neutral fitted shell built for product rather than street display.
- Best For
- Permanent wholesale showroom space and buyer preview appointments sit at the top of the fit list, followed by regional press day and collection preview hosting, recurring sample sale space with full retail flow, content studio and lookbook shoot use, then internal brand presentations and corporate sessions. Available for annual rental rather than short fashion week pop-ups.
- Standout Features
- Garment racks, counters, fitting rooms and a dedicated stock room are already installed, so the floor is close to move-in ready for a working fashion showroom. Three enclosed rooms allow parallel buyer appointments while the common area holds the full collection, and the space adds on-site parking, elevator access for freight, a private lobby with CCTV and access control, a kitchen for catering setup, and sound and video equipment vetted by Fashion Week Venues.
- Location
- Kaki Bukit MRT on the Downtown Line is a five minute walk, putting Bugis, Chinatown and Marina Bay roughly twenty minutes from the door, with parking on site for crew arriving by van. The immediate estate is industrial and orderly, busy with deliveries and forklifts between 8am and 10am and quiet enough by afternoon that a buyer appointment or press day in this rental feels controlled and private.
- Availability
- Minimum rental period is 336 days at a day rate of SGD 210 (approximately EUR 142), which places it at the low end of the Singapore market on a cost per square metre basis. We recommend six to eight weeks lead time for Singapore fit-out and licensing, and spaces at this size in the Ubi and Kaki Bukit corridor typically book fastest ahead of the Q1 and Q3 wholesale buying calendars, with fit-out extras quoted on request as brief-based pricing.
- How to Book
- Enquire with your dates, headcount and activation format and our team will confirm availability and reply within 24h, with no charge until confirmed. Permit paperwork, retail staffing and fit-out coordination are handled by Fashion Week Venues on the brand's behalf, so request availability now to hold this Kaki Bukit floor for your next showroom term.

activation ideas
SS/AW Seasonal Showroom
This is the strongest use of the floor, because 1,500 sqm with garment racks, counters and a dedicated stock room already installed means a full seasonal collection hangs without a build. Brands running a permanent showroom rental here typically keep the common area as the open collection floor and hold carryover and archive in the stock room. With a 336 day minimum term, plan the calendar around both buying seasons using our activation timeline before committing.
Buyer Appointments and Wholesale Previews
Three enclosed rooms plus one common area is the layout that makes this space work for appointment led selling, since you can run two or three buyer meetings in parallel without accounts seeing each other's terms. In practice each room comfortably seats four to six people around a rail and a table, while the common area holds the full buyer preview. Parking on site and a five minute walk from Kaki Bukit MRT keep regional buyers arriving on schedule.
Sample Sale
The retail infrastructure is already here, which is what separates this from most industrial floorplates: counters, fitting rooms, garment racks and a stock room mean a sample sale space needs staffing and terminals rather than a fit out. At this size the floor handles 150 to 200 shoppers at a time with queue management, and the private lobby with access control lets you run timed entry slots. Add point of sale and payments and the flow is complete.
Press Day and Media Preview
This works well as a press day venue for regional editors and stylists, mainly because the estate is quiet from early afternoon and the private lobby entrance gives arrivals a controlled, unshared threshold. Realistically it suits 40 to 80 press and stylist visits across a full day in rolling appointments rather than one crowded opening. The kitchen supports catering setup, the elevator handles rail deliveries, and enclosed rooms allow embargoed one to one briefings.
Content Creation Day
A basement floorplate with controlled lighting and no daylight variance is genuinely useful for a brand shoot, because colour and exposure stay consistent from 9am to 9pm. Crews of 10 to 20 work comfortably across the common area with the three rooms serving as hair and makeup, styling and client review. Existing furniture covers the basics, and additional set pieces come through furniture rental rather than a full production build.
E-commerce Shoot
For high volume e-commerce shoots this space removes the usual bottlenecks, since garment racks, fitting rooms and the stock room sit on the same level as the shooting floor and steaming, sequencing and returns all happen in one loop. Teams here typically hold two shooting bays in the common area and dress one room as a permanent packshot corner, which means 300 to 500 SKUs a day is achievable without moving product between locations.
Video Production
Sound and video equipment on site plus a basement level with no street noise makes this a workable video studio for campaign and social content. The concrete shell takes rigging and blackout better than a ground floor unit, and freight moves in via the elevator with parking for a grip van. The constraint worth knowing is ceiling access and power distribution, which should be surveyed before booking any shoot needing large lighting rigs.
Trade Workshop or Masterclass
Enclosed rooms and a kitchen make this a credible venue for retail staff training, styling masterclasses and product knowledge sessions for wholesale partners. Each room holds 12 to 20 seated participants with the common area used for demonstration and product handling, so a 60 person training day runs in rotating groups. This is an internal and trade format rather than a public one, as the estate delivers no passing audience and every attendee arrives booked.

the neighbourhood
Sample rooms, bridal ateliers, wardrobe and props houses, furniture importers and photography studios fill the upper floors of Kaki Bukit, and between them they quietly handle a large share of Singapore's fashion production and content output. Walk the loop from Kaki Bukit Avenue 1 into Kaki Bukit Place and Kaki Bukit Crescent and the stacking logic becomes obvious: a leather goods workshop above a lighting supplier, Padi Bridal a few hundred metres from Wihardja Furniture, Universal Traveller and Tieng Sang Leather Goods both inside a five minute walk, and unmarked stock rooms behind roller shutters in the Enterprise Hub and TechPark blocks. Push west toward Ubi and Eunos and the corridor picks up fulfilment teams, casting studios and agency back offices that service the CBD without paying CBD rent. In our experience placing brands here, this is production territory rather than consumer territory, and teams who browse all spaces across the island tend to land in Kaki Bukit when they need volume, discretion and a building that can take a truck.
Cost per square metre is the honest reason brands take this estate over the addresses they shortlist first. Sixteen thousand square feet at roughly SGD 210 per day is a fraction of what the same footprint commands in Orchard, Marina Bay or Tanjong Pagar, and it undercuts the shophouse rows around Keong Saik and Duxton Hill, where fashion tenants now bid against restaurant groups for every unit. It is also cheaper than Tiong Bahru, Jalan Besar and Kampong Glam, which have priced up considerably in the last few years. Kaki Bukit MRT sits on the Downtown Line, so buyers and press staying around Bugis, Chinatown or Marina Bay arrive in about twenty minutes without a car, and there is on site parking and lift access for freight, which almost nothing in Orchard can match. What you surrender is address prestige and any casual public awareness at all. Brands weighing that tradeoff usually ask us to run a parallel search through venue sourcing before they commit, because the saving only pays off for appointment led, invite only or production based formats.
Arriving here feels industrial and orderly rather than atmospheric, and the private lobby with access control does more for the visitor experience than anything on the street outside. Deliveries, forklifts and trade vehicles dominate between roughly 8am and 10am, then the estate settles into a steady working rhythm where the people passing are staff, couriers and supplier reps rather than shoppers. Afternoons run quiet enough that a buyer appointment or press day feels genuinely controlled, and the estate empties fast after 7pm. The basement level, three enclosed rooms and open common area map well onto a working showroom plan, and with garment racks, counters, fitting rooms and lighting already installed, the shell is closer to usable than most B1 floors of this size, which is why our production and build team can turn it around quickly. What this neighbourhood does not support is walk-in retail or short bursts of activity. There is no spontaneous footfall, no street visibility worth counting, and the minimum term runs close to a year, so brands chasing a two week fashion week pop-up should look elsewhere in the city.

the neighbourhood
Kaki Bukit is an industrial area located in Bedok in the East Region of Singapore. It is home to many high tech industrial companies and warehouses. There used to be a prison complex called Kaki Bukit Centre, which was converted to a prison school in 2000. It has since moved to Tanah Merah and the Acacia Welfare Home now stands in its place. On the south of Kaki Bukit is Jalan Tenaga and Jalan Damai neighbourhoods of Bedok Reservoir Road. Redevelopments are in the pipeline for Kaki Bukit beyond 2030 when Paya Lebar Airbase, located just north of the estate, relocates to Changi. Not only would

frequently asked
Not in the two week format most pop-up shops run on, because the minimum term on this 1,500 sqm Kaki Bukit floor is 336 days. What it does support is a pop-up style retail environment operated inside a longer commitment, so brands use it for recurring sample sales, seasonal buyer previews and invite-only selling days across the year rather than one short burst. There is no passing footfall in this industrial estate either, so a walk-in temporary retail concept would underperform here regardless of the term.

who it suits
Brand Scale
This space fits an established brand with a 15 to 60 person team, five or more years of trading, and an active wholesale or regional distribution business in Southeast Asia. At 1,500 sqm across a common area and three enclosed rooms, with a stock room, garment racks, counters and fitting rooms already in place, it functions as a permanent Singapore base rather than a short campaign venue. The 336 day minimum term is the qualifying filter: this is an annual commitment for a brand that needs a fixed showroom, sample archive and back of house under one roof. Brands with three to eight people, no local stock holding and a need for two weeks of visibility will find it far too large and too long, and should instead browse all spaces for shorter formats. Equally, a luxury house looking for a flagship consumer address will find Kaki Bukit wrongly positioned for its purpose.
Aesthetic Fit
Utility led, industrial and product first identities work here. A basement floorplate with air conditioning, controlled lighting, a private lobby entrance and access control suits contemporary ready to wear, denim, streetwear, footwear, technical outerwear, accessories and leather goods, where the priority is clean hanging space, accurate light for colour matching and a neutral shell that can be dressed with rails, plinths and a build out. In our experience the brands that get the most from a space like this treat the shell as a blank system and invest in fit out through branded store design rather than expecting the architecture to carry the story. What does not work is a heritage or high jewellery aesthetic that depends on natural daylight, period detail and a prestige street address. A basement in an industrial estate will undercut that positioning no matter how well the interior is finished.
Best Use Cases
First choice is a permanent wholesale showroom and buying appointment base, since three enclosed rooms allow parallel buyer meetings while the common area holds the full collection on garment racks. Second is a regional press day and collection preview venue, with parking, elevator access and a five minute walk from Kaki Bukit MRT making arrivals straightforward for editors and stylists. Third is a recurring sample sale, where the stock room, counters and fitting rooms already support a full retail flow and only need retail staffing and payment terminals added. Fourth is a content studio and lookbook shoot space, given the controlled basement lighting and sound and video equipment on site. Fifth is a corporate or internal brand presentation space, using the kitchen, wifi and secure private lobby. Where we see mismatches is when brands expect passing footfall; the surrounding trade is automotive and homeware, so every visit here is booked.
Budget Signal
On a cost per square metre basis this sits at the low end of the Singapore market and represents one of the better value propositions for volume space in the city. Brands at this stage typically compare it against Orchard or Marina Bay commercial units, where the same floorplate would cost several times more, or against hotel function rooms and co-working meeting suites, which charge a premium for short bookings and offer no stock room, no fitting rooms and no ability to leave a fit out standing. The trade off is honest: you pay industrial estate rates and accept an industrial estate address, a basement level and a near twelve month commitment. For a brand running year round wholesale appointments, sample sales and shoots, the maths usually works, and our budget calculator will show how quickly a fixed annual base beats repeated short term venue hire.
