Puerto Rico Industrial & Logistics Report, Q4 2023

San Juan’s industrial market vacancy rate remains low, reflecting both global trends that favor demand for logistics assets and the low production of new stock over the last two decades.

March 08, 2024

Since 2017 & COVID-19 demand has increased in the market. The island remains an important location for certain industries such as pharma and aeronautics, which benefit from structural factors including access to natural resources and Puerto Rico’s proximity to mainland United States. Most of the new demand is captured under built to suit due to the shortage of Class A speculative stock.

San Juan’s industrial market vacancy rate closed 2023 around 4.8%, reflecting both global trends that favor demand for logistics assets and the low production of new stock over the last two decades.

Vacancy rates on San Juan’s western submarkets (Cataño, at 4.6%, and Bayamon, at 1.3%) are lower, due to a higher concentration of industrial and logistics operations and their access to the rest of San Juan’s metropolitan area. Vacancy in Carolina stands around 16%, with available areas concentrated in Victoria, Sabana and La Ceramica industrial parks.
