OVERVIEW

Macallan Capital Partners provides comprehensive investment banking and advisory services for industrial projects. Our team brings decades of experience in structuring capital solutions tailored to the unique requirements of this asset class.

Whether you are seeking debt financing, equity partnerships, or strategic advisory, we leverage our deep industry relationships and market expertise to deliver optimal outcomes for our clients.

Market Opportunity

Industrial real estate has emerged as the most resilient and supply-constrained segment of the commercial property market. Powered by structural secular drivers—e-commerce proliferation, supply chain rebalancing, nearshoring and reshoring initiatives, and the acceleration of same-day delivery services—the industrial sector attracts record institutional capital seeking mission-critical assets with essential tenant bases. Last-mile distribution centers, regional logistics hubs, and flexible light industrial facilities command premium cap rates due to strong tenant creditworthiness, long lease terms, and limited new supply in primary markets. The ongoing shift from retail real estate to logistics infrastructure has created a structural supply-demand imbalance supporting price appreciation and yield expansion.

Macallan Capital Partners brings comprehensive expertise across the full spectrum of industrial property types—from mega-scale regional distribution centers to flex industrial spaces serving light manufacturing and assembly. Our team understands the operational complexities that define industrial asset value: transportation infrastructure connectivity, power and utility capacity, loading dock configurations, and tenant operational requirements. We maintain institutional relationships with the universe of industrial lenders and equity investors, enabling rapid capital deployment at competitive terms across development, value-add, and stabilized acquisition scenarios.

Macallan structures transactions with particular attention to tenant credit quality, lease term duration, location fundamentals, and development risk profiles specific to industrial assets.

The Macallan Approach

Market Micro-Location Expertise

Industrial returns are highly dependent on micro-location characteristics—transportation corridors, intermodal connectivity, power infrastructure, and local market logistics networks. Our team conducts granular submarket analysis evaluating transportation accessibility, competitive supply pipelines, and tenant demand fundamentals. We identify markets in supply constraint where rent growth and value appreciation are sustainably above inflation.

Tenant Credit & Operational Underwriting

Beyond standard lease analysis, we evaluate tenant operational fitness—facility utilization, inventory turnover, distribution network efficiency, and credit stability. We engage specialized logistics and supply chain advisors for complex transactions involving major 3PLs, e-commerce operators, or specialized logistics users to ensure thorough operational and financial due diligence.

Development Risk & Capital Deployment

Macallan brings experience managing industrial development risk across site selection, permitting, construction, and lease-up phases. We structure development partnerships aligned with sponsor capabilities, maintain relationships with construction lenders and permanent take-out capital sources, and provide strategic guidance on market timing and tenant pre-leasing strategies to optimize development returns.
