Pandemic boosts Memphis-style industry: Distribution

The second quarter passing entirely under the shadow of COVID-19 was a strong three months for industrial real estate in the Memphis area.

A net 2.6 million square feet of warehouse and industrial space was absorbed, meaning businesses leased that much more space than they vacated during the spring.

The vacancy rate for the area – including Shelby, Fayette, DeSoto and Marshall counties – dropped from 6.5% to 5.8%.
