TAG Industrial Watch: October 3, 2020

  “The pandemic has, in essence, caused five years of e-commerce growth to occur in about a five-week period. This hike has created a ripple effect for industrial real estate, right down to the labor market. With the urgent need for additional warehouse and distribution spaces, automation technology and higher demand for skilled labor has increased, even with current high unemployment numbers. Although some believe automation to be a solution to cut costs, the irony remains that automation requires some of the most labor expertise.”    -Adam Abushagur
