Global logistics real estate markets are experiencing a significant shift, characterized by tightening supply and changing negotiating dynamics, as highlighted in Cushman & Wakefield’s Waypoint 2026 report. This shift follows several years of heightened development activity and a recalibration of demand in the wake of the pandemic. The analysis, which covers 135 logistics markets worldwide, indicates that conditions are increasingly favoring landlords, suggesting a new phase in the market. As supply diminishes, landlords are expected to gain more leverage in negotiations, impacting rental rates and terms for tenants. This evolving landscape reflects broader trends in the logistics sector as it adapts to post-pandemic realities.
