(Photo: Kanana Katharangsiporn)Thailand's industrial and logistics property market is entering a critical phase in 2026 as global supply chains reset and major economies redirect long-term investment, presenting both challenges and rare structural opportunities for the country. Phongphan Phloiphet, director of logistics and industrial at property consultancy Cushman & Wakefield Thailand, said demand for industrial land, ready-built factories and logistics facilities has remained resilient despite temporary disruptions in early 2025. "Thailand remains attractive not because of cheap labour, but because of its complete industrial ecosystem," Mr Phongphan said. "Speed and policy clarity are now as important as land availability," Mr Phongphan said.
