TAG Industrial Watch: August 29, 2020

“In just the second quarter of 2020, 30 million square feet of industrial real estate was absorbed in the United States, with 2,000 new leases signed for 10,000+ square feet facilities. The strong performance in the first half of the year is a reflection of the obvious ecommerce demand, but also for domestic manufacturing facilities. Thanks to the pandemic’s supply chain interference at the beginning of Q2, companies in mass worked to realign and make reshoring plans, a win for industrial real estate. So, while exports and imports were strong through June, domestic manufacturing is a trend we won’t be seeing the last of.”
