“Perth’s Industrial & Logistics market has seen substantial growth in recent years, with demand significantly outpacing supply.” Mentioned Sam Hammond.

This rapid expansion has created a competitive landscape where businesses must strategically navigate increasing pressures to meet the evolving needs of the market. The Perth team are well-equipped on market trends, understand the drivers needed and strategic approaches to take when working towards delivering maximised results and securing the ideal location for property seekers. 

Two prime examples of this are the recent transactions the team have been involved in, being the leasing of the state-of-the-art industrial facility development at 17 Tarlton Crescent, Perth Airport and the significant landholding sale of 144 Carrington Street, O’Connor. 

On behalf of Perth Airport, Colliers leased the 13,000m² industrial facility located at 17 Tarlton Crescent, Perth Airport to Border Express Ptd Ltd. 

“The site has been purpose-built to accommodate the growth and enhance operational capabilities for Border Express Pty Ltd. The asset spans 4ha of site area, with 13,000m² under roof and 2,750m² of canopy area.” Mentioned Hayden Dick. 

“It was essential for Border Express to find a site that could meet the needs of their vehicle fleet, and this development delivers precisely that. It features parcel loading docks and ample parking space for up to 30 B-Double trailers” Added Benjamin Kepes. 

Further supporting the appeal of the site is its ideal location. Located within the Perth Airport precinct, the site boasts excellent connectivity to Perth’s major road networks, including Tonkin, Leach, and Roe Highways, positioning Border Express Pty Ltd alongside other major industry players in this prime blue-chip location.

In addition to this market leading lease, Colliers WA Industrial & Logistics team were also recently involved in the significant sale of 144 Carrington Street, O’Connor, representing the largest sale in Western Australia for an industrial land holding in 2024.

The campaign presented a rare opportunity to obtain a 4.29ha site, strategically positioned on the major arterial route of Carrington Street. “The asset was snatched up by a local owner-occupier, underscoring the ongoing demand for industrial properties in Western Australia.” Said Sam Hammond.

The significant opportunity to acquire the industrial & logistics landholding, generated substantial interest, resulting in multiple offers and concluding with a maximised outcome of a sale at record pricing.
