No winter is missed, no spring is forgotten. The establishment of a new development pattern, featuring domestic and international circulations, welcomes a boost in Chinas domestic consumption and enables commercial real estate companies to swiftly move from the haze of the pandemic. Internal calculation entails new business demand, as market confidence continues to recover and improve.
After more than two decades of rapid development, China’s real estate market has entered the era of “Increment to Stock”. Commercial real estate faces “structural surplus” with intensified regional and sector differentiation. Advantages and resources are accelerating their convergence to more competitive cities.
In 2020, the commercial real estate transaction volume in Beijing reached 63.8 billion Yuan, this achievement is the second-best in history. To this day, Beijing maintains its status as the national leader for commercial real estate investment. In such an aggressive environment, the survival of the fittest in commercial complex operators is inevitable. In the face of fierce competition in Beijing’s lucrative CBD, CP Center has developed a business pattern with characteristics of its own.
CP Center continues to assert its position as a great enterprise in China, by establishing partnerships with recognized global corporations. Like IBM, Roche another Fortune 500 company, will become CP Center’s newest tenant in 2021. The key concept of “Great Health + Great Future” within the industrial ecological circle of CP Center, will provide a foundation to support these outstanding enterprises.
CP Center is the headquarter for CP Group in China, a century-old overseas Chinese business enterprise. Founded in 1921, CP Group has experienced almost a hundred years of vigorous development, starting as a single business Chia Tai seed store, growing exponentially into a diversified transnational conglomerate consisting of three core businesses: agro-industry & food, wholesale & retail and telecommunications. In addition, CP has a foothold in other industries such as finance, real estate and life sciences across 100 countries and territories
CP Group was one of the first business enterprises to be established after the reform, and the company continues to honour its core values of benefiting the country, the people and the company, or simply know “Three Benefit Principle”. Embodying these values, CP Center is positioned as the home of the global businesses in China. Long before the construction of CP Center, The Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council and Mr. Dhanin Chearavanont, Senior Chairman of CP Group, shared a common wish, of inaugurating a building for overseas Chinese businessmen’s to call their own in Beijing. The building will serve as a communication platform for Chinese businessmen, as well as a link between the global Chinese business community and the government.
Keeping in mind the idea of “Eternal Gratitude ”， the Three Benefit Principle has been integrated into the operational philosophy of CP Center. It welcomes international leading enterprises, as well as assists Chinese outstanding enterprises with their global aspirations.

The newly developed CP Center, CP Group’s headquarters, is located at the core of the “Golden Cross”. It is connected to Guanghua Road in the North and CITIC Tower in the West, overlooking the CCTV building and a stone’s throw away to CBD Central Park. Around the Center, there are urban trunk roads such as the East Third Ring Road, Chang’an Street, Guanghua Road.

In the CBD area, an inch of land in the busy section is worth an inch of gold. This functional area has a strong industrial influence and appeal even though it only accounts for 0.04% of the urban area.
In the future, Beijing CBD will become the distribution base of global economic resources and various production factors, as well as the centralized development base for the modern service industry and international exchange base of economy and culture. The newly developed CP Center, CP Group’s headquarters, located at the heart of the “Golden Cross”, will greatly benefit from this future.
CP Group is cautious in building its new business ventures, as a member in the CBD core area of Beijing, and particularly careful about operations.
