Australian Industrial & Logistics Market Indicators 2026

Our latest report reveals national industrial trends, city-specific market conditions, and strategic insights into how modern occupiers are using supply chain technology as a competitive advantage. 

Australia's industrial markets are transitioning from cyclical rebalancing to early-stage recovery. Major occupiers are consolidating operations and relinquishing ageing warehouse space for modern facilities, driving national gross take-up to 4.28 million square metres - 34.6% above the 10-year average.

While national vacancy sits tightly at 4.8%, market dynamics vary. Eastern seaboard cities are managing a brief overhang of speculative stock, while Perth remains critically tight at just 2.2% vacancy.

Emerging sectors like AI and data centre construction are reshaping land requirements. With 2.10 million square metres currently under construction and developers preferencing pre-leases, securing optimal space and navigating sticky incentive structures is increasingly time-sensitive.
