Charlotte’s Industrial Market Expected to Close Another Robust Year of Leasing

by John Nelson August 30, 2021

The Charlotte industrial market is seeing significant tenant demand and investment activity at mid-year 2021 as the market begins to return to normalcy after the disruption during the early days of the pandemic. Like many other Southeastern industrial markets, Charlotte saw a lag in activity through the second and third quarters of 2020. One year later, the impacts of the pandemic continue to burn off, creating an almost insatiable appetite for modern warehouse and distribution space. Since the start of the year, the market has seen a strong increase in overall activity as local economies continue to open up, employment levels rebound and businesses move forward with decisions about space utilization. Tenants in the e-commerce, consumer goods, retail and light manufacturing sectors are particularly active.

Many tenants expanding in or entering the market are taking mid- to large blocks of space, a …
