Industrial market sales in Q4 22 the lowest since 2020

Total transactions in the final quarter increased to $715.1m.

On the back of a hazier economic outlook and dampening of business sentiments, industrial market sales in the fourth quarter of 2022 went up to $715.1m, Knight Frank said.

This, however, is the lowest since the second quarter of 2020 when transactions totalled $324.8m due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Leasing transactions are still stable in the months of October and November 2022 as businesses in manufacturing and engineering continue their expansion.

Prices and rents in the industrial market will continue to stabilise with a marginal growth of 1% to 3% for the whole of 2023, Knight Frank projected.

In the logistics segment, where supply is limited, rents for quality warehouse space might soar by a higher 3% to 5% in 2023.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
