COMMERCIAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
The Housing Society has around 130,000 m2 of rentable commercial space including shops and offices and 9,600 carparking spaces. As an independent and self- financing organisation, during the pandemic, the Housing Society continues to uphold a prudent commercial principle for the letting of all its commercial premises, in order to help our tenants tide over the unprecedented challenges.
At present, 75 per cent of our retail space is occupied by neighbourhood shops focusing on meeting residents’ basic needs, with the remainder being rented to the welfare sector. In view of the increasing trend of e-shopping driven by digital transformation under COVID-19, we have let 21 premises to online service providers so that residents can enjoy greater convenience of goods with delivery in the proximity.
In support of the Government’s policy to promote the wider use of electric vehicles, we have gradually installed more medium chargers at existing carparks where warranted. We also pioneered the use of new technology to enhance the management of the charging facilities by dedicating the facilities for electric vehicle drivers.
In addition, due to the substantial rent concessions granted to our commercial tenants, occupation of commercial premises has remained stable and high at 99 per cent during the year.

目前，房協將百分之七十五的零售空間租予 社區商舖，側重於滿足住戶的日常需要，餘 下空間則租予社福機構。鑑於在新冠肺炎疫 情下，數碼轉型帶動網上購物呈增長趨勢， 房協已租出二十一間處所予網上服務供應 商，令住戶購物和取貨更便利。
為響應政府擴大電動車使用範圍的政策，我 們已在許可情況下逐漸在現有停車場安裝更 多電動車充電器。我們亦率先採用新科技， 為電動車司機提供專用設備，以提升充電設 施的管理。
此外，由於本年度大幅寬減商業租戶的租 金，商業物業出租率維持穩定在百分之 九十九的高水平。
