There is a growing demand for warehouses especially with the recent export surge in FY 20-21 which helped boost activities in the agri value chain participants, but there has been insufficient supply. The ongoing pandemic has led to a disruption in the supply chain across sectors in the country, resulting in an increasing demand for storage space from commodities, electronics, and the FMCG sector. India’s major warehousing hubs are set to see a rise in rentals as severe disruptions in supply chains due to the pandemic forces companies to keep inventory close to major consuming centers in hopes of a steady recovery in demand.

This shows that there is a potential investment opportunity as seen when major players have been entering the warehousing space. According to the 2020 Knight Frank report on warehousing, institutional investors had been investing substantially over the years. In 2019 they had invested $1.8 billion and the investor activity which was subdued in 2020 due to Covid-19 disruptions has seen a steady rise in 2021.
