Twenty-four transactions totalling $404 million in the first half of 2026.<\/p>\n

Adelaide\u2019s industrial investment market has begun the year strongly and is likely to power through to 2027, according to a report by global realtor Knight Frank.<\/p>\n

Adelaide Industrial State of the Market Q2 2026 author and Knight Frank partner Tony McGough said Adelaide continued to attract investors due to its strong industrial market fundamentals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith volumes already past last year\u2019s halfway mark, Adelaide is on track to exceed 2025 volumes, though volatile global conditions are always a risk,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cInvestors continue to be attracted by Adelaide\u2019s combination of relatively affordable pricing, low vacancy, ongoing rental growth and limited industrial land supply.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of the $404-million overall sales figure, Knight Frank negotiated $129-million or 32 per cent.<\/p>\n

Deals included the $25.25-million sale of 6-14 Oxenham Street at Dudley Park (leased by the Department of Defence) and the $22.25 million sale of 46-58 Ashwin Parade at Torrensville (a cold storage facility leased to PFD Food Services).<\/p>\n

Also completed were the $21.5 million sale of 5 Talisman Avenue at Edwardstown (which is leased to the South Australian police force) and the $18.5 million sale of 2-4, 6, 8-10 & 9-13 Turin Place and 26 & 28 Bremen Drive at Salisbury South, the latter leased to Australian Whole Foods.<\/p>\n

Knight Frank head of capital markets for South Australia Max Frohlich said there was strong investor appetite for well-located industrial property offering secure income, quality tenant covenants and long-term growth potential.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe continue to see strong demand from private investors, syndicators and institutions seeking quality industrial assets across Adelaide,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dudley Park and Edwardstown assets we sold offered government-backed income, and Torrensville and Salisbury South were secured by strong national tenant covenants that operate in the non-discretionary food supply chain.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese transactions demonstrate the breadth of capital targeting Adelaide\u2019s industrial market, from private investors through to professional fund managers seeking secure income and long-term growth opportunities.<\/p>\n

Frohlich said Adelaide continued to offer compelling value compared to larger eastern seaboard markets, and benefitted from strong occupier demand, low vacancy and ongoing land value growth.<\/p>\n

The report showed Adelaide\u2019s industrial fundamentals remained supportive of investor demand, with prime net face rents increasing 3.1 per cent year-on-year to an average of $149 per square metre. Industrial land values increased 10.5 per cent for small lots and 13.9 per cent for medium-sized lots over the past year.<\/p>\n

Logistics centre changes hands<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a logistics facility in Adelaide\u2019s outer north has sold for $12.125 million.<\/p>\n

The property at 75 Kaurna Avenue at Edinburgh has 6767sq m of gross lettable area on a 15,734sq m site opposite a Coles distribution centre and surrounded by major occupiers including DHL and PepsiCo.<\/p>\n

A private investor bought the facility in a deal negotiated by Bennett Lane\u2019s Matthew Lane and Guy Bennett and Knight Frank\u2019s Max Frohlich and Ryan Mills on behalf of vendor MA Financial Group.<\/p>\n

Frohlich said the campaign had generated 105 enquiries.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe result reflects continued confidence in Adelaide\u2019s industrial sector and the growing appeal of Edinburgh Park as a major logistics and industrial destination,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cInvestors continue to be attracted to Adelaide\u2019s low vacancy environment, strong rental growth trajectory and relative value compared with the eastern seaboard markets.\u201d<\/p>\n
