Portfolio concentration in infill markets is delivering strong returns
At Goodman, we use our local market knowledge to source quality locations so that our customers can be close to their customers. The location and quality of our portfolio in key urban centres has continued to drive underlying returns, resulting in high occupancy and rental growth.
The supply constraints in these markets are contributing to the strong underlying fundamentals which are driving future growth.
Key property investment highlights include:
We have a diverse range of global and local customers across industries including e-commerce, logistics, retail, automotive, pharmaceutical and technology.
Structural demand expected to drive
growth in WIP to
around $5 billion in
the near term
Increased customer demand, driven by structural changes in our markets, is giving us greater confidence to escalate development activity. As a result, our development workbook is growing strongly. Commencements have increased to $4.2 billion while work in progress has increased 14% to $4.1 billion across 55 projects in 13 countries. This is expected to reach approximately $5 billion in the next 12 months.
The concentration on urban logistics developments is changing the nature of our projects. Land scarcity is driving the need for multi-storey developments, automation and robotics require higher-quality facilities, while there is an ever-increasing need to integrate sustainability features into the building. We are building properties that are flexible and adaptable to accommodate the demands of the future. These projects are more complex, however, we have the skills, infrastructure and financial resources to deliver.
Other key development highlights include:
Strong performance of the Partnerships and AUM growth is increasing earnings
Partnership AUM ($B) Total AUM ($B)

We raised and deployed more capital in Partnerships to fund the growth in development work, with $900 million invested by the Group over the year.
