2024 Industrial Snapshot industry briefing

Thank you to Property Council Victoria for hosting this year’s ‘Industrial Snapshot’ industry briefing!

Expertly moderated by Hilary Marshall from Ratio Consultants, Aliro Group’s Development Director of Victoria Jason Blake joined Luke Crawford, Head of Logistics & Industrial Research at Cushman & Wakefield and Stefanie Frawley, Director of Portfolio Management at TMX Transform, to share valuable insights and trends shaping the property market. The three panel members discussed land supply shortages, outlook for pricing and demand and the importance of balancing environmental with the economic goals of industrial projects.

Jason Blake highlighted that “Achieving a balance between profitability and affordability in high-demand areas like Melbourne, where industrial land prices are at a premium, requires a careful approach to design, operational efficiency, and cost control. Key factors include maximising land use, implementing innovative designs that incorporate ESG principles, and optimising site locations for accessibility. These elements are essential to meet market demands and drive sustainable returns.”

Thank you to everyone who attended, and to the Property Council of Australia for an insightful event.
