Why Shallow Bay?

A Fragmented Market Positioned for Institutional Scale

Shallow bay represents ~44% of industrial real estate, but has historically been owned by individuals and smaller operators.(1) Infill locations, high replacement costs and difficult development economics have kept new supply in check, with inventory up only about 8% since 2010.(1) The result is a sector that has historically delivered lower vacancy and stronger rents than larger formats such as big-box industrial.
