Montreal Industrial Market Outlook

Montreal's industrial market maintains structural tightness at 4.5–5.4% vacancy despite Amazon's 2.1M sq ft exit. Leasing activity strengthened in Q4 2025 as 3PL firms absorbed available space, with net rents stabilizing at $14–$16/sq ft. Limited construction pipeline (4.3M sq ft underway) positions well-located spec buildings for rent growth into 2026–2027.
