What is Industrial Real Estate in 2013?

• Manufacturing Buildings: The “norm” in 1950-1970, then manufacturing shifted to Mexico, then China in 2001. Now we are seeing it come back to North America

• Growth of E-Commerce Fulfillment Centers

• Continued demand for cross-dock, transload, distribution and warehousing facilities in growth markets

• Export Centers for consolidation of containers and goods

Trade Impacts Real Estate

• Shifts in all industry levels can directly impact the size, shape, type, locations, infrastructure and demand levels for real estate

• Manufacturing–Shift of building type: From smoke stack to high-tech and from off-shore, to near-shore

• “Retail” now involves Industrial buildings! (E-commerce fulfillment centers, traditional Distribution Centers (DCs), etc.) Transportation (new routes, infrastructure, trends)

Panama Canal

• Canal operating at capacity today

• Limited ship-sizes that can operate, 110 feet wide max, going to 185 feet wide!

• Impact on USEC and Gulf Ports

• Completion date; Dec 2014, start up Q1 2015

• Main “shift” will not be in West Coast, vs. East Coast, Asia-traffic market share, but in 1 ship carrying 12,000 TEUs vs. 3 ships carrying 3500 TEUs each!


`

THE PROBLEM!

THE FIX – up to 12,000 TEUs

EC Ports Will Grow Because:

• Increasing Eastern Europe/Indian Trade- Via the Suez. “Watch out for Pirates!”

• Increasing S. American (Brazil, Chile, etc.)

• GDP Growth

• Proximity to Major Markets

• Small increase in Asia-US trade through Panama and Suez routings


WC Ports Will Grow Because:

• Increasing Asian China Trade (GDP lowered to 7% Growth Rate for 2013)

• Increasing SE Asia Trade, non-China

• GDP Growth

• Proximity to quicker/cheaper Intermodal Routings that can penetrate to within 250 miles of East Coast.

• Small decrease in market share of China-based-US trade through Panama and Suez routings.


Panama Canal Bottom Line

• BALANCE – In Market Share after 2014 will be the answer. Approx. 52%-48% today, 50%-50% after 2014.

• IF- Ocean Carriers re-work pricing after Panama Canal Expansion- lowering prices by 30% for all water, compared to LA/LB + Intermodal, AND the RRs do not drop correspondingly—you could see 10%-20% Market Share drop from WC to EC.

• Likelihood of this happening? 1 in 10.


Why are Ports, Inland Ports, and Shipping Costs Important to Ind. RE?

• The means, method and pathway that goods flow through the country directly impacts the markets that win and those that miss out.

• Port and Inland Port markets that retain or absorb a large amount of the containers that are received have larger industrial real estate demand and opportunities.

• Still, the most important location decision is based on demographics (where are the people moving from 2015-2030 and “landed cost”.

The Future Port Model

• Select port gateways will serve near-port and inland port distribution and manufacturing• One, two or more inland ports supported by

truck and rail networks, in state and soon, out of states

• Increase the connectivity between ports and inland ports for imports and exports

• Support traditional distribution services with E-commerce fulfillment services that operate together from the same facility or separate facilities

New Types of Industrial Real Estate: Export Centers & E-Commerce

• Export Centers match up empty-import Containers with Export Loads.

• Where? At Inland Ports!

• E-commerce fulfillment center (like DC’s) are going to be different, larger, more diverse and in different markets.


Many Areas are Significantly Imbalanced …But This Can Be Addressed

Export Center


Retail Trends


E-Commerce Fulfillment

Types of E-Commerce

• E-Commerce = Electronic Commerce (Computer, Laptop, Desktop)

• M-Commerce = Mobile Commerce (Phone, tablets, readers etc.)

• S-Commerce = Social Commerce (Derived from Social Networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Groupon, etc.


Projected Impact of E-Commerce

• By 2025 it has been estimated that Ecommerce will represent 30% of all Retail Sales and account from 2.7 trillion in total sales (Source: Dematic)

• Within 5 years, the percentage of sales closed at physical stores vs. alternative sales channels (E-Commerce, M-Commerce and S-Commerce) will drop from 91% (today) to 76% (Deloitte Study)


E-Commerce Impact on Industrial

• One-third of all demand for big-box space in the US in 2012 was tied to multi-channel retail or E-Commerce (Area Development Magazine, 2013)

• The E-Commerce generation of industrial is up to 5 times more labor intensive than traditional retail/distribution: more parking, mezzanine build-outs and increased automation are some of the features difficult to retrofit to older buildings, but many can be converted. (Area Development Magazine, 2013)


E-Commerce Key Criteria for Site Selectors

• Avoidance of Nexus Tax (may get mitigated, but not yet….)

• Proximity to major markets • Inexpensive land• UPS and FedEx Truck Hubs nearby• Ample seasonal/surge labor pool• Reasonable proximity/access to interstates• Local incentives: Tax breaks—FTZ!!


Bottom Line for Industrial RE?

• Stay in the Markets where the PEOPLE ARE!

• Invest where they PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE!

• 10 and 20 year Demographics are changing.

• Northeast did not sustain the “hit” that everyone predicted, because of the Recession.

• Florida and PHX actually stayed the same from 2008-2010. PHX and HOU fastest growing metros last 12 months.

• Look for where the demographic trends are likely to emerge in 10 year segments and plan accordingly.

Conclusion: What Does This All Mean to Me?

• Recession is over, but growth is slow.• Supply Chains create need for more space. (E-

Commerce and export centers)• We are seeing this now in continued consolidation to

large “Big Box” DC’s.• New E-Commerce phenomenon will create more

demand for Industrial Space.• Incentives (like FTZ, large truck courts etc.) will

continue to distinguish Big Boxes. • Never forget…We add 4 Million new mouths to feed

each year in the USA!
