SoCal’s Booming Industrial Market Attracts Global Investors

Since 2010, foreign investors have poured more than $52 billion into U.S. industrial assets, notes CBRE, with the Greater Los Angeles, Orange County and Inland Empire accounting for nearly one tenth of overall cross-border investment volume. During this time, advancement in e-commerce and omnichannel supply chains have added value to industrial assets, creating investment opportunities in both suburban locales like the Inland Empire, and urban areas such as Los Angeles and Orange County. Since 2010, the most active buyers originated from China, Singapore and Canada, representing 74% of the capital flow.
Moving forward, CBRE predicts industrial and logistics assets will continue to attract foreign capital, supported by positive fundamentals, e-commerce demand and a diverse local economy that is fueling user demand.
