The industrial market in Orange County remains strong as demand continues to far outweigh supply. Vacancy throughout the region remains at historic lows, staying below 3 percent for the 13th consecutive quarter through the third quarter of this year. The largest submarket, North Orange County, is also the tightest submarket with a 1.2 percent overall vacancy. As an infill market, we do not anticipate significant increases in vacancy within the Orange County industrial marketplace for the foreseeable future, despite the new developments recently delivered, planned or under construction. There are several significant industrial development projects in various stages in the county. This is welcome news by users seeking to upgrade and expand into modern facilities while maintaining local operations. The first is a 30-acre redevelopment site in Huntington Beach that was purchased by Sares Regis Group earlier this year. Sares Regis is expected to begin construction shortly, with plans to deliver more than 600,000 square feet of new product in late 2019.

Western Realco is also nearing completion of Beckman Business Center, a 900,000-square-foot, …

Effects of E-Commerce Ripple Across Salt Lake City Industrial Market, Concludes InterFace Panel
by Alex Tostado
SALT LAKE CITY — E-commerce has emerged both as a major driver and hindrance to manufacturing growth in Salt Lake City, where increasing costs of technology are limiting the speed at which industrial users deliver goods to consumers. The rise of online shopping has been predicated on rapid delivery of product, but achieving an expedient pace of distribution requires greater investment in automated technology that can package and ship goods faster than human laborers. But e-commerce is not cheap to execute. According to Wick Udy, managing director in the Salt Lake City office of brokerage giant JLL, the cost of delivering an item purchased online generally accounts for about 25 to 30 percent of the total purchase price. “We’re starting to see a lot of these companies re-evaluate their network,” said Udy. “They’re going closer to the consumer, and that’s helping with logistics costs. E-commerce and certainly manufacturing are really what’s driving our market here.” Udy made his remarks during InterFace Industrial Real Estate in Salt Lake City on Nov. 29. The half-day conference at Little America Hotel and was followed by InterFace Multifamily Real Estate later that same day. All totaled, the two events drew 306 professionals from across …
