Since property cost (either purchase or rental) is relatively high in Hong Kong, the local business pays much attention to where its trading partner is located. A company that is located in a Grade A office building, in general, gains more trust from its trading partner than one that is located in an old industrial building. This is another reason why Hong Kong companies tend to move to better office buildings. Otherwise, their trading partners will question if they are facing to any potential financial problem.

In addition, there are multinational companies do not care about this, and move to a sub-urban area. The first challenge they face to is hard to hire people. Candidates with talent simply do not want to apply for the jobs located outside of the prime area.
