Real Estate Insights Podcast: choosing the right warehouse can help occupiers manage rising costs

Since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic significant tailwinds have amplified nearly every metric associated with the logistics property market. Take-up has risen dramatically and the supply of new buildings has fallen, which has caused the vacancy rate to drop to the lowest level ever recorded. These market conditions have seen businesses compete for the best warehouse space, which has driven rental growth. This, combined with other inflationary pressures, has seen questions asked about whether this is both affordable and sustainable for occupiers moving forward

Join Guy Ruddle and guests, Charlie Spicer, director in the national industrial & logistics team, Andrew Smith, strategy director at LondonMetric and Helen Price, supply chain & logistics advisor at Hatmill, as they discuss how choosing well located warehouse space can alleviate cost pressure further into the supply chain, keeping overall costs in check.
