Prologis Reports Strong Leasing Activity with Data Centers Driving Future Growth
Prologis is experiencing a surge in leasing activity, expecting third-quarter lease signings to reach near-record levels of 60 million–65 million square feet. This growth is supported by improving occupancy rates and faster customer decision-making, along with an active pipeline exceeding 100 million square feet. Data centers are emerging as a key driver for Prologis' future expansion, accounting for about 10% of new leasing activity. The company has advanced power capacity to support data-center infrastructure and initiated roughly $4 billion in build-to-suit projects. Additionally, Prologis is leveraging private equity partnerships for large-scale developments while maintaining its focus on core logistics operations. The firm also highlighted a significant rent-growth potential due to an existing 17% lease mark-to-market gap, which could generate approximately $700 million in incremental revenue if market rents align with replacement costs. These trends indicate strong operational momentum and value creation for the company.
