INDUSTRY.co.id - Tangerang - Industrial area Cikande or Modern Cikande continues to grow into a potential investment area. The area is now filled with more than 200 companies both local and multinational. Companies that dominate are food & beverage companies, chemical companies, followed by companies engaged in the field of steel, metal products, and smelters, as well as companies in the field of home & building materials.
We are optimistic that sales this year will increase, in line with the improving global economic conditions and tax amnesty policies. This is evident from the purchase activity of land in ModernCikande by some new customers in early 2017, which increased compared to the first quarter of the previous year, "said Pascall Wilson, director of PT Modern Industrial Estate, in his official statement Tuesday (5/23/2017) .
In 2017, PT Modern Industrial Estate targets sales (marketing sales) of Rp1, 3 trillion. Rapid development Modern Cikande as one of the largest industrial area in west Jakarta, can not be separated from its strategic location. Geographically, Modern Cikande located between Balaraja and Serang can be accessed through the Jakarta-Merak toll road and continued through the Ciujung toll booth. This access is also just a step toward the three major ports, such as Ciwandan, Cigading, and Merak Mas.
As one of the largest industrial parks in west Jakarta, Modern Cikande continues to develop as an integrated modern industrial area. Its strategic location and supported by various qualified facilities, make Modern Cikande lined up as one of the most prospective investment areas in Indonesia.
Modern Cikande Industrial Estate is projected to be more prospective. This is, along with the opening of the Cixande Interchange Highway (Serang Interchanges), Serang, which was built since April 2014.
The interchange will have a 1.3-kilometer line connecting the Kragilan-Cikande Alternative Road with Tangerang Toll Road - Merak Km 52 + 150. Interchange will also be equipped with seven toll booths that will become access to and exit of Jalan Tol Ruas Merak - Jakarta.
Interchange development itself will certainly have a positive impact, such as smoothness and accessibility, especially in the East Serang area, so it is expected to attract many investors to enter the area Cikande, or Serang Timur as a whole.
Later, if the Cikande toll gate operates an estimated five thousand vehicles will cross this toll gate every day. Increasing the number of vehicles, due to the transition of vehicles that normally pass through the Ciujung toll gate and Balaraja West will partly switch to the Cikande Toll.
"Currently, the government has completed the construction of Cikande toll booth, which in the near future will be opened and operated, so from that moment ModernCikande industrial area can be accessed only a kilometer from the toll gate," Pascall said.
