TAG Industrial Watch: June 12, 2021
“Computer chips, shipping containers, and single-family homes aren’t the only things in short supply these days, people are too. Labor shortages are popping up everywhere as 8 million job openings go unfulfilled, despite there being 9.3 million people unemployed (Globe St.). With no one to do the work, labor shortages put additional strain on supply chains. Employers are also forced to hike wages in order to attract or even keep workers. All of which is problematic for industrial real estate developers faced with supply chain issues and higher labor costs for construction workers. However, these new barriers to entry create opportunities for owners of existing industrial properties that are well positioned to take advantage of higher property values.” -Adam Abushagur
