Operators and providers of these services and spaces typically aim for clients that have changing needs in terms of scaling, and are looking to avoid the drawbacks of a long lease term. In today\u2019s economic context, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/the-rise-of-co-warehousing-whats-the-appeal\/\">co-warehousing can help<\/a> small businesses not only survive, but also thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly two years after <em>Commercial Property Executive <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/is-flexible-warehousing-the-next-step-for-industrial\/\">talked with Portal Warehousing CEO<\/a> Alex Morrison, we checked in again to see how his company and this type of product have evolved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We\u2019ve seen a rise in popularity among investors for shallow-bay, multi-tenant industrial product in high-population growth, infill markets. In your experience, why is demand for this type of product so high today?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Morrison: <\/strong>From a fundamental real estate perspective, the demand for small-bay multi-tenant industrial is growing while the supply is static or even shrinking in some markets. Small-bay industrial is significantly more expensive to develop than Class-A industrial, meaning new supply does not come online in most markets. Capital markets also favor the long-term credit tenancy that comes with newly built industrial product, which can incentivize developers to even demolish existing small-bay space for new product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From a demand perspective, we see an incredible diversity of businesses seeking space. Vacancy rates for small-bay space are still at or near all-time lows in most markets. There is strong demand and limited supply, which results in improved rental rates and returns that investors appreciate. Portal\u2019s sweet spot of sub-2,500-square-foot spaces is even more supply-constrained and in-demand than small-bay industrial.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1004710997\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/portal-warehousing-ceo-on-the-expansion-of-co-warehousing-solutions\/portal-bk_the-whale-exterior-ii\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1533,1149\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"PORTAL BK_The Whale Exterior II\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg?w=1024\" height=\"767\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Portal Warehousing - Brooklyn - The Whale\" class=\"wp-image-1004710997\" style=\"width:400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg 1533w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg?resize=300,225 300w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg?resize=768,576 768w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2024\/04\/PORTAL-BK_The-Whale-Exterior-II-e1713450679611.jpg?resize=1024,767 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> The Whale facility in Brooklyn is a 500,000-square-foot, seven-story building. <em>Image by Hechler Photographers, courtesy of Portal Warehousing <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>In our previous interview, you told us that Portal was offering integrated logistics solutions, technology partnerships and growth support to its clients. How have these services evolved and what types of partnerships were most beneficial for your business model?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Morrison: <\/strong>Our services have become much more robust since we last spoke. Our approach has always been to help our members scale and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/getting-in-the-heads-of-industrial-tenants\/\">become more efficient with logistics<\/a>. Some examples of our strategic partnerships include a shipping platform with volume discounts and AI insights through Gori Co., freight partnerships to help with shipments of less-than-truckload and full-truckload pallets, and agencies that focus on web development, marketing and multi-channel expansion. The most beneficial are the shipping platforms that allow our members to access rates through our volume that they normally could not find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Multi-story industrial solutions are becoming more common, especially in markets where developable land is scarce. How can these serve the co-warehousing model?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Morrison: <\/strong>What we\u2019ve shown with Portal Warehousing is our ability to create a supply of high-quality small industrial space for our customers who have limited options. While we have no problem operating in Class A industrial buildings with 32-foot clear height, we can also operate in more unique assets like big-box retail or multi-story loft-industrial buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In infill markets like New York City, we are seeing a reversal of the creative office trend that repurposed legacy loft-industrial assets into offices. Portal\u2019s model can bring demand and tenancy back to these assets. We have proven this with our most recent expansion in Brooklyn, where we are operating 60,000 square feet on the sixth and seventh floor of an infill industrial building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tell us more about this recent Brooklyn expansion. The borough has a thriving small business community.

The Whale was built over 100 years ago as a multi-story manufacturing building, but for the past 10 years it has been marketed as a creative office building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Portal was brought in to help bring the building back to its roots as an industrial building and generate leasing activity. Portal\u2019s spaces range from 250 to 2,000 square feet, and we offer flexible terms, move-in ready space and logistics services. The building offers spaces from 2,000 to 50,000 square feet on traditional lease terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Portal members can grow out of Portal into direct space in the building without having to relocate, and tenants get access to the Portal community space and services.
