Why You Should Attend this DFW Industrial Commercial Real Estate Event
What You’ll Learn
- How are labor shortages, logistics shifts and supply chain pressures reshaping operational strategies for industrial users and developers?
- What does financing look like in today’s environment and how are deals getting structured amid tighter lending conditions?
- What do the latest DFW industrial sales, construction and vacancy trends reveal about where the market is heading in 2026 and beyond?
- How are tenant demands evolving and what do leasing teams need to know to stay competitive in a high-vacancy environment?

How You'll Do More Business From Attending This Event:
Dallas–Fort Worth continues to lead the nation in industrial real estate activity, with $415M in sales through just the first two months of 2025 and over 24 M SQ under construction — the largest pipeline in the country. But even amid strong growth, challenges are emerging. Vacancy rates have climbed to 9.4% and developers are recalibrating in the face of shifting demand, absorption pressures and a more cautious capital environment.
At the 2025 DFW Industrial Summit, commercial real estate leaders will break down what’s driving the market — and what’s coming next. From large-scale development to leasing, logistics, site selection and smarter design strategies, this year’s program offers a comprehensive look at how the region’s top players are adjusting for long-term success and capitalizing on unique market opportunities,
