Since 2020, the shift from “just-in-time” to “just-in-case” inventory strategy fueled the industrial real estate market to new heights and was a major contributor to GDP growth. Firms responded to historic consumer demand by gobbling up extra warehouse space to expand their inventories. Recently, retailers have found themselves swimming in excess inventories as inflation forced consumers to cut back. While many companies are aggressively working off unsold inventory, the “just-in-case” inventory strategy is likely to stick around. With global inflation continuing to worsen, companies still have an incentive to stock up now versus pay more later. While industrial demand may not repeat last year’s record pace, the industry remains on a solid footing in the current economic environment.
