Industrial occupancy rate dips in Q2

The decline was due to substantial new completions.

The overall occupancy rate for the industrial property market fell by 0.2 percentage points quarter on quarter to 88.8%, according to a JTC report.

The decline was due to substantial new completions such as World Gateway 2 in the warehouse segment and JTC Space at Ang Mo Kio in the multiple-user factory segment.

Meanwhile, the occupancy rate of business parks rose by 0.8 percentage points QoQ as tenants moved into newly completed developments.

The rental and price indices of all industrial space during the period rose by 0.7% and 1.4% QoQ, respectively.

As of the end of June 2025, around 0.3 million square metres of new industrial space is expected to be completed in the second half of 2025.

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.
