   Global Logistic Properties (GLP) has confirmed it is seeking potential buyers as part of its independent strategic review, the company said in a statement to the Singapore Stock Exchange.
   The statement comes after media reports from the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg quoting anonymous sources speculated about a possible sale of the Singapore-based logistics property development firm.
   GLP noted that a sale is only one of several options it could pursue as a result of the strategic review, and that no agreement has been reached. The company did not name the parties with which it is currently in discussions.
   The second-largest operator of warehouses in the United States, GLP has a market capitalization of $7.5 billion, according to WSJ.
   The acquisitive company last month secured a strategic land parcel for long-term logistics facilities development in Tokyo, to be developed in phases, and in September, agreed to purchase a portfolio of warehousing and logistics properties in the U.S. valued at $1.1 billion.
