ZECO Holdings Limited Reports Improved Shop Occupancy in Real Estate Segment

ZECO Holdings Limited has reported a rise in shop occupancy in its real estate segment, reaching 52.17% in the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, up from 30.77% in the same period last year. The company attributes this growth to intensified marketing efforts and expects occupancy rates to increase further in the coming months.

Financial performance for the quarter showed moderate revenue growth, with ZWG 1,715,383.39 recorded, compared to ZWG 941,913.40 in the prior year. The group’s results are closely tied to the economic environment, which influences operating and production costs. However, the company anticipates a boost in income during the fourth quarter, driven by the festive season and relative economic stability.

Administration expenses accounted for 19.52%, while property expenses were 21.69% for the period. ZECO remains optimistic about stable economic conditions in the final quarter, supported by infrastructure developments and steady commodity prices. The company plans to pursue new market segments and innovate to enhance its competitive position.

“We anticipate an improvement in business as we continue to positively innovate in the competitive environment,” the company stated.
