How smarter logistics can help shape tomorrow’s cities

Over recent years there’s been increasing interest in city or urban logistics among developers and investors. It’s a subject which has also risen up city, national and European policy agendas. This mutual interest has been spurred by the growth of e-commerce and online retail and the burgeoning demand for last-mile fulfilment facilities being generated. Our new report, More than the last mile, seeks to give you greater insight into logistics property markets by linking them to what’s happening more widely in supply chains.
