Metro Vancouver’s historical industrial submar-kets of Richmond and Delta registered near-
record levels of deal and dollar volume in 2015 as owner-occupiers and investors actively sought to acquire assets in an environment characterized by limited supply and tightening vacancy. While new construction and transportation infrastruc-ture continues to reshape Delta’s expanding industrial market and attract investment from all quarters, the maturation of Richmond’s industrial nodes has also proven attractive thanks to sus-tained demand and ongoing low vacancy.
As rents started to climb in 2015 (particularly in Richmond) and vacancy declined as businesses sought to establish or expand their presence in Delta and/or Richmond, institutional investors and their respective real estate arms are acquiring and/or developing industrial assets in these maturing industrial markets where growth and the potential upside on lease rates moving forward justify the acquisition and/or construction costs. Further rein-forcing this sentiment among institutional investors is the growing demand by owner-occupiers to ac-quire industrial assets – including land, stand-alone
buildings or strata units – in these markets; and, who as purchasers, are now achieving the pricing necessary to entice once reluctant vendors to sell. Achieving vendor expectations has triggered near record levels of investment in Delta and estab-lished a new high-water mark in Richmond.
Industrial sales dollar volume in Richmond in 2015 ($268M/105 deals) surpassed the previous record dollar volume, which had been set in 2014 ($220M/104 deals). The record number of industri-al transactions in Richmond in a single year is 122, which was set in 2008, but recorded just $143M in proceeds. Significant acquisitions in the market in 2015 included Crestpoint Real Estate’s pur-chase of Key West Business Centre ($34.5M) and Knightsbridge Business Park ($40M). The sale of Vanguard Industrial Estates ($22M) to South Street Development Group was anoth-er notable transaction. (For the purposes of this report, Avison Young has not classified the $63M sale of 7911-7991 Alderbridge Way and 4935-4991 No. 3 Road as an industrial transaction due to its mixed-use nature and pricing based on being a redevelopment site with holding income.)

Industrial sales and leasing activity in Delta and Richmond has remained very active since the last report in the summer of 2015. The following are significant examples of industrial sales and leases.
The TJX Group of Companies, the operator of Winners and HomeSense retail stores, leased the entire second phase of the Dayhu Group of Companies’ Boundary Bay Industrial Park (437,000 sf) development in Delta for use as TJX’s Metro Vancouver distribution operations. Both phases of Dayhu’s 880,000-sf development are now fully leased.
Meanwhile, Lululemon Athletica leased 155,000 sf at 7831 Vantage Way in Delta from Triovest Realty Advisors. Lululemon is relocating its dis-tribution centre from South Burnaby to the Delta submarket in 2016 – a trend that has become more popular with the completion of Highway 17, other-wise known as the South Fraser Perimeter Road.
Belleville-Rodair International has leased 24,500 sf from Taymor Industries at 1488 Derwent Way in Delta. The third-party logistics provider has solidified its first Metro Vancouver distribution centre at that location.
Rampion Enterprises Ltd. has leased 21,425 sf at 1555 Cliveden Avenue in Delta for a five-year term. This is a relocation to Annacis Island after the firm recently sold its facility in East Richmond to RJS Trading International Ltd.
Holland Imports has leased the old Aaaaah-So Easy Mobile Mini Storage facility at 7990 Hoskins Road in Delta. Holland Imports’ lease includes the entire 111,000-sf facility and is for a five-year term. The building will house a portion of the company’s distribution needs away from its existing Burnaby facility.
Orbit Logistics leased the remaining 60,000 sf of Grosvenor’s Millennium VI’s development at
1005 Derwent Way in Delta. This lease, coupled with the earlier 103,000-sf lease by Direct Distribution LP, resulted in the development being fully occupied.
More recently, Bentall Kennedy acquired 8400 and 8500 River Road in Delta from Darrahdi Holdings Ltd. for $49.5 million or $167 per square foot in March 2016. The building at 8400 River Road is a 209,900-sf distribution facility occupied by Damco, a third-party logistics provider that is part of the Maersk Group and provides ware-housing and cross-dock operations on behalf of its clients. Included as part of the transaction was 8500 River Road, which is an 83,584-sf manufactur-ing facility fully leased by Varsteel.
Bentall Kennedy sold a 106,380-sf facility at 12211 Horseshoe Way in Richmond to First Choice Foods Inc. in May 2015 for $13 million or $122 per square foot. Viceroy Homes was the tenant at the time of the transaction.
Two properties at 12431-12451 Horseshoe Way in Richmond, which totalled 57,180 sf, were sold by Llernam Holdings Ltd. to a private investor for $10 million and represented a price-per-square-foot of $175. At the time of sale, the properties were fully tenanted by Silgan Plastics Canada Inc.
Vanguard Industrial Estates (4671-4771 Vanguard Road) in Richmond was sold to South Street Development Group. The site will likely be redeveloped. The properties, previously owned by Carnarvon Properties Ltd., total 7.66 acres and encompass 193,734 sf of exist-ing building space and traded for $22 million in September 2015.
Speeders Indoor ProKarts has leased 49,108 sf from Victor Carpets at 13471 Crestwood Place in Richmond. The old San Mar Clothing com-pany space has been completely retrofitted to house a new indoor electric go-karting facility.
Belleville-Rodair International leased 24,500 sf at 1488 Derwent Way in Delta, a deal that marked the third-party logistics provider’s first location in Metro Vancouver.

Vacancy in Richmond tightened to 2% at year-end 2015 from 3.3% at mid-year 2015, due to strong leasing activity and a lack of new inventory delivered to the market.
Industrial sales activity in Delta in 2015 ($133M/39 deals) was the second strongest on record during the past decade. Only the record-setting 2013 ($236M/46 deals) surpassed the activity levels registered in 2015. Vacancy dropped to 4% at year-end 2015 from 6.8% six months earlier as strong leasing activity and a lack of new vacant supply pushed vacancy below 5% in Delta for the first time since spring 2009.
Deal velocity and dollar volume in Delta and Richmond are expected to remain strong in 2016 as existing vacancy is absorbed in the next 12 months as intense de-mand from investors and owner-occupiers motivates those seeking to relocate or expand to either prelease space in new projects or acquire suitable strata premises.
