Singapore leads Asia Pacific with a 10.8% YoY rise in logistics rents

Knight Frank attributed the growth to the nation's strong manufacturing.

Singapore reported the largest increase in logistics rents in Asia Pacific in H1 2024, with rents rising 6.7% HoH and 10.8% YoY. 

Knight Frank stated that the H1 growth is the highest recorded in 10 years.

Knight Frank linked the growth to robust manufacturing in Singapore, where the Purchasing Managers' Index has expanded consecutively for 10 months.

"This strong performance is expected to continue, with forecasts projecting a 3% to 5% increase in prime logistics rents for 2024, as international manufacturers continue to view Singapore as an attractive location for their overseas operational expansion plans," Knight Frank said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
