7 MARKET COMMENTARY The industrial property market has continued a steady improvement in 2016/2017 with particular activity in urban logistics, the energy and trade counter sectors. Around 5 million sq ft of industrial floor-space was taken up in Wales in 2016, of which circa 3 million sq ft (60%) involved units over 50,000 sq ft and take-up was 38% higher than in At the end of 2016, there was 10.8 million sq ft of floor-space available across Wales, a decrease of 5% over 12 months. The M4 Motorway corridor across south east wales remains the prime industrial and logistics location with increased rents and capital values. There is a notable shortage of new industrial floor space and new speculative development across South Wales is limited. Logistics activity has focused on parcel delivery points from 10,000 to 60,000 sq ft within the M4 corridor, between Cardiff and Newport. The subject property is well suited for its current manufacturing use however, it is also suitable for the logistics sector with its key property attributes including dock level loading, good eaves height (8m), secure yard/parking and a strategic location providing easy access to the national road network. The only speculative new build in South Wales of circa 50,000 sq ft is St Modwen s Unit 1, Celtic Business Park in Newport. This unit has recently been let to Amazon on a new 10 year lease at a rent equating to 5.50 per sq ft. 07
