Industrial Real Estate in Atlanta: Glenn Wylie on Growth and Infill Demand

Businesses searching for industrial space for rent in Atlanta are finding more reasons than ever to make the region home. The city's rapid population growth—with more than 330,000 new residents between 2011 and 2024—has fueled demand for logistics real estate. At the same time, land scarcity has made infill warehouse properties increasingly valuable.

Glenn Wylie, senior managing director for Link Logistics’ East Region, explained why Atlanta is such a compelling market in a recent LinkedIn video.

“The number-one aspect of Atlanta is the population growth,” he said. “Land scarcity is a major component—it’s getting much more difficult to develop and own real estate, especially of an infill nature. The infill portfolio that Link Logistics has here in Atlanta allows our customers to get their product to the consumer very, very quickly.”

Link Logistics’ local portfolio reflects these dynamics, offering logistics warehousing solutions that shorten supply chains and improve speed-to-market for customers.

As in cities across the country, Link Logistics customers in Atlanta also benefit from the firm’s people on the ground.

“In every one of these markets we have local teams meeting with our customers, meeting with the brokerage community,” Wylie noted in another LinkedIn video. “That allows us to further entrench our relationships with these customers and with these local markets.”
