Real Estate Insights, from Savills

What is the outlook for the UK’s industrial and logistics market? Have recent geopolitical events changed occupiers, investors, and developers’ strategies?  Henry Stratton, Head of Research & Strategy at Tritax, and Tom Leeming, Director at Tritax Big Box Developments, join Savills Tom Shaw,  Director in Savills Industrial & Logistics Occupier Advisory team, to talk through the results of the ninth annual Future Space survey. Alongside taking the temperature of the industry in the UK, and any impact of recent macro events, the team discusses how automation, the planning system and access to labour and power are shaping the industrial and logistics market.

The Savills team unpacks how UK real estate is performing this year, revealing where investor confidence is returning across their respective property sectors. Drawing on Savills cross-sector outlook, James Emans (commercial), Charlie Paton (rural) and Polly Simpson (residential) join host Guy Ruddle to offer sharp, expert perspective on the year ahead. Recorded at the end of February 2026, this annual episode from Savills highlights what investors should be watching out for.
