“Australia remains the preferred investment destination within the region, with capital continuing to flow back into the country — particularly into the industrial and logistics sector. While investment activity is becoming increasingly selective, a clear trend has emerged towards newer, high-quality assets located in strategic infill locations as investors adopt a 'flight to quality' approach” said Tony Iuliano, International Director, Head of Logistics & Industrial - ANZ.
Adrian Rowse, National Director, Capital Markets Logistics & Industrial – ANZ added “This portfolio represents a premium-grade offering, developed entirely by Frasers Property — one of the few genuine national developers with a proven track record in delivering institutional-grade industrial assets across Australia”.
