Perak (霹雳) is rapidly transforming from its historic tin-mining roots into a dynamic and diversified industrial powerhouse in Peninsular Malaysia. Building on the robust infrastructure of the Kinta Valley, the state is now attracting significant investments in advanced manufacturing, Electric Vehicle (EV) assembly, and integrated logistics, making it a prime destination for industrial expansion.
The state's industrial evolution is marked by major developments like BYD's new EV plant and Proton's ongoing expansion, signaling strong momentum in the automotive and technology sectors. This is complemented by strategic growth in halal manufacturing, where certified food processing and cold chain logistics target the global halal market.
Perak's logistical backbone is a key advantage. It features comprehensive road and rail networks and critical maritime access via the Lumut port. The potential development of LUMIC (Lumut Maritime Industrial City) promises to elevate the region into a major trade hub. Emerging industrial estates in Manjung, Seri Manjung, and across the state offer modern facilities supported by this connectivity.
A wide range of factories and warehouses are available for rent and sale throughout Perak, catering to small, medium, and large-scale operations. From state-of-the-art facilities spanning over 8,000 sqm for precision manufacturing to flexible spaces for apparel and assembly, the market accommodates diverse needs. The presence of a skilled workforce and a legacy of engineering excellence provides a solid foundation for production quality and innovation.
Whether you are in EV components, advanced manufacturing, halal products, or logistics, Perak offers a strategic and cost-effective base with room to grow within a supportive industrial ecosystem.

Perak anchors Malaysia's northern industrial corridor:
Land prices vary widely with state and corridor (Klang Valley vs. Northern/Southern), zoning class (light, medium, heavy industrial), title category (freehold vs. leasehold vs. Pajakan Negeri), road frontage and access for trailers, infrastructure readiness (power, water, drainage), and proximity to ports, airports, and major highways. Always evaluate the all-in cost including any conversion premium and infrastructure capex.
You need land conversion (if applicable), planning permission from local authority, building plan approval, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for larger developments, and Department of Environment compliance. The process typically takes 6–18 months.
Minimum industrial lot sizes vary by state and zone. Light industrial zones typically start from 0.5 acres, while heavy industrial zones may require 1–5 acres minimum. Check with the local District Land Office.
Freehold land has no expiry and easier resale, ideal for long-term holding or self-development. Leasehold (60–99 years) is 15–30% cheaper and often in mature industrial parks. For commercial development with quick turnaround, leasehold can offer better ROI.
