Driving Positive Impact with Sustainable Solutions for the "New Economy"

�

HONG KONG SAR -�Media OutReach�- 25 November 2020 -�ESR Cayman Limited ("ESR" or the "Company",
together with its subsidiaries as the "Group"; SEHK Stock Code: 1821), the
largest APAC focused logistics real estate platform, has reaffirmed its
commitment to long-term sustainable growth by announcing its five-year vision
roadmap and targets around ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) performance.

�

Following
the adoption of a Group ESG Policy and having laid the foundation of its ESG roadmap,
ESR's plan and targets are explicitly aligned with the UN Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs).

�

The Group
has set out a clear vision and targets across the three key pillars of Human
Centric, Property Portfolio and Corporate Performance. They include improving gender
ratios, achieving zero workforce fatalities, a 50% increase in solar power
generation, a 20% reduction in group-wide energy consumption, and US$15 million
of social investment in local community foundations by 2030.

�

Jeffrey
Shen and Stuart Gibson, Co-founders and Co-CEOs of ESR, underlined the
importance of the roadmap and targets for the Company's future: "We have been
committed to ESG throughout the years and this move strengthens our commitment
to a structured framework with tangible goals that we will achieve. Our goal is
not just to become bigger but also better, as we continue to advance the
industry as a leader and a responsible custodian of our natural resources,
stakeholders and communities."

�

ESR has achieved robust growth in recent years thanks to being
well-positioned to capitalise on the secular growth trends in APAC. As the Group
continues to strengthen its commitment to delivering the 21^st
century logistics infrastructure, the new economic paradigm in this uniquely challenging year has
reaffirmed why responsible business will be more important than ever, both in
the immediate recovery and longer-term.

�

"2020 has
been shaken with global volatility across all markets. We recognise that the
new economy must be built back by purpose-led and responsible businesses and
the need to set an example for the industry -- not only through eco-efficiencies
but also by looking ahead towards opportunities to drive meaningful growth and
improve key metrics. This is laid out in our five-year roadmap, a period which
will be instrumental for ESR's business. We look ahead with confidence to the
progress and wins we hope to achieve together as we reach our ambitious targets,"
continued Mr. Shen and Mr. Gibson.

�

In
addition to its importance to ESR's customers, business partners and employees,
ESG is also increasingly critical from an investor perspective. Greater
transparency and accountability on environmental and social matters is a key driver
of ESR's business as the Company's ESG performance crystallises its approach to
sustainability.

�

Emma
Larsson, ESG Officer of ESR, commented: "We are especially conscious of
our influence on our stakeholders and are excited and humbled to engage with
them to drive positive impact. Our five-year roadmap begins with the scientific
foundation that maps our risks, builds capacity in people and systems and then
ensures that we foster a culture of learning and transparent communications, so
we can hold ourselves fully accountable to progress and development."

�

Strategies are in place to ensure that the 2025 targets are achieved.
Firstly, ESR aims to integrate ESG considerations into all stages of the
business cycle. This includes establishing data management systems,
streamlining ESG data collection processes and developing policies while setting
annual performance targets and reviews for a fully transparent process.

�

In order to promote health and wellbeing, engagement programmes with all
ESR stakeholders will be strengthened, while conducting regular ESG risk
assessments in building safety, energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality
and waste and water management.

�

Across the region ESR is embarking on a climate impact study to shape
the Group's approach to climate adaptation. It also seeks to foster a culture
of active ESG learning for employees. Lastly, ESR plans to progress further in
ESG reporting each year. This will include a GRI adopted ESG report by 2022,
improved GRESB scores and participation at a corporate level, as well as becoming
a signatory of the Principles of Responsible Investment (PRI) by 2024.
