Link Logistics Provides Third Quarter 2023 Update

Added $754 Million of High-Quality Infill Assets

Achieved 57 Percent Quarterly Blended Cash Leasing Spreads

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Link Logistics (“Link” or the “Company”), the largest U.S.-only owner and operator of last-mile industrial real estate, today provided an update on the Company’s third quarter 2023 activity. The Company owns, has interests in or has under development properties that upon completion will represent a total of 538 million square feet. Link Logistics’ operating portfolio is 96.4 percent leased on a same-store basis. During the quarter, the Company executed 24.4 million square feet of leasing and generated quarterly blended cash leasing spreads of 57 percent, up from 52 percent in the prior quarter.

“Link Logistics’ strong third quarter performance reflects continued demand for well-located last-mile logistics real estate and sustainable facilities that support our customers’ evolving needs,” said Luke J. Petherbridge, chief executive officer, Link Logistics. “E-commerce and onshoring remain significant growth drivers for our business and industry. In addition, increased leasing activity by our clean energy manufacturing customers represents a long-term tailwind for the firm.”

Nicholas L. Pell, president and chief investment officer, Link Logistics, added, “Our scale and local market expertise provide Link Logistics with exceptional opportunities. Against the backdrop of capital markets and interest rate volatility, our best-in-class industrial portfolio added 4 million square feet of modern infill assets totaling $754 million.”
