Boston’s industrial market has been called the most diverse in the country, with e-commerce companies, biomanufacturers from the area’s vibrant life sciences industry and more all competing for precious warehouse space.
In a report released late last year, CBRE noted that competition for industrial space in Beantown had turned “cutthroat” due to a severe imbalance between supply and demand.
CBRE said “insatiable demand for any available space” in Boston has continued to drive the industrial market during the pandemic.
