EcoWorld moves up the rankings

PETALING JAYA (Oct 30): Relative newcomer Eco World Development Group Bhd (EcoWorld) ranked fifth in The Edge Malaysia Top Property Developers Awards 2017, following its sixth place last year.

“As a new developer, we are thrilled and humbled to be able to be one of the top 10 winners again this year as we have put in a lot of effort in establishing our brand name in Malaysia as well as overseas over the last four years.

“It is something that we would not be able to achieve without the strong support from the customers, shareholders, bankers, business associates and, of course, our very own Team EcoWorld,” said EcoWorld president and CEO Datuk Chang Khim Wah, who was accorded The Edge Malaysia Outstanding Property CEO Award in 2015.

The secret behind EcoWorld’s success, Chang said, can be attributed to Team EcoWorld, which is recognised for its capability in quickly bringing to market highly sought-after developments which meet the lifestyle needs and aspirations of its target customer base. 

In addition, the group’s strong branding, loyal customer following and its unique value propositions offered by each project have also contributed to its success in consistently meeting and exceeding its sales targets.

Looking ahead, he said the team will continue to strive and deliver their promises to customers and to establish EcoWorld to be among the top-tier developers in not only Malaysia, but overseas as well.

“Our tagline is ‘Creating Tomorrow and Beyond’ — this is the motivation which drives us to create benchmark products, living and working environments which deliver enduring value for our customers. We make a conscious effort to develop as responsibly as possible because we are building not just for today but also for our future generations,” he said.

He added that EcoWorld will continue to push sales and deliver high-quality products as well as excellent customer service despite the current tough property market.

“Customers’ access to housing loans remains an issue industry wide and getting the right pieces of land for the right price to target the right markets [is another challenge]. But we are always evolving to ensure that there is the right product mix and designs to suit market conditions,” he concluded.
