Article Abstract:

Demand is rising for industrial property in Manchester's most attractive areas, but shortages are being caused by a lack of prime development sites and buildings for small- to medium-sized industrial and warehouse use. Some developers are moving towards speculative schemes, but most are still cautious, as funding is in short supply. The limited volume of speculative development over recent years means that design-and-build schemes predominate.
