Thematic industrial properties to thrive in 2025: Knight Frank

This includes data centres, food factories, and logistics.

Thematic industrial properties, such as data centres, food factories, and logistics, are expected to be sought after in 2025, according to Knight Frank.

In addition, living sectors, including serviced and co-living residences, are also expected to attract interest as tourist and transient cross-border worker volumes rise.

Investment sales activity is projected to improve with an annual total projected sales transaction value estimated at $27b to $30b for the whole of 2025.

In contrast, Knight Frank noted that the collective sales market will likely face continued challenges in the year ahead as developers remain sensitive to price weighed against the attractiveness of sites. Owners will need to set realistic asking prices for a sale to materialise.

Amidst the cooling measures for residential properties, commercial and mixed-use developments are expected to have a better chance of success given prevailing market conditions.

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.
