BTG delivers £12.5m of industrial sales in strong start to 2026

The real estate arm of BTG has completed more than 600,000 sq. ft of industrial and logistics transactions across the South East during the first five months of 2026, with deals totalling in excess of £12.5m in sales alongside a series of major lettings.

BTG Eddisons, part of BTG, completed four industrial sales and three significant lettings, underlining continued demand from both occupiers and investors for high-quality warehouse and logistics assets across key regional markets.

Among the deals completed by BTG Eddisons were a 34,168 sq. ft warehouse and office facility with its freehold interest marketed at £4.5m, a £5.4m deal for a unit and factory on an industrial estate and a £2.6m sale of a warehouse to a private investor. Its occupational work included one of Bedfordshire's largest industrial lettings of 2026.

The transactions reflect continued resilience across the industrial and logistics sector, with demand being driven by occupiers seeking quality warehouse accommodation and investors targeting well-located assets with strong fundamentals.

Paul Quy, head of industrial and logistics at BTG Eddisons, said: 

"These transactions represent an exceptional start to the year for our team and demonstrate the depth of demand that continues to exist across the markets in which we operate.

"The combination of significant investment sales and substantial lettings highlights the strength of both occupier and investor appetite for quality industrial assets. Despite wider economic uncertainty, businesses remain focused on securing strategically located premises that can support growth, while investors continue to recognise the long-term appeal of well-positioned industrial property.

"Particularly encouraging has been the diversity of the transactions completed, ranging from refurbished logistics facilities and manufacturing space through to multi-let investments and development opportunities. The level of activity we have seen during the opening months of 2026 provides strong momentum for the remainder of the year and reinforces the value of expert market knowledge and regional coverage."
