Read MoreThere is a growing emphasis on sustainability and environmental footprint in the transportation and logistics industries worldwide, with nearly 70% of companies from these sectors in the Fortune 500 having set a net zero carbon target, and around half aiming to achieve this objective by 2030 or earlier. This growing trend is also influencing logistics occupiers’ real estate decision-making worldwide.
In Asia Pacific, an increasing number of logistics occupiers are seeking more environmentally friendly warehouses and distribution centres. CBRE’s June 2024 Asia Pacific Leasing Market Sentiment Index found that energy-related features, particularly renewable energy supply and energy efficiency management, are most preferred.
