Mid-tier businesses play a fundamental role in global supply chains, yet many of them are running on legacy systems and processes, facing long-term underinvestment in skills and technologies and have a very strong case for change that crystallised particularly after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Increased industrial market activity influences all aspects of tenants decision making process. Factors such as record gross take-up in first half of the year, continuing rise of prices of construction materials, lengthening of handout process and completion of the building and extremely low vacancy of industrial premises for lease is shifting the market to more and more competitive environment among tenants.
