Industrial Land Planning and Development Market Report 2026

The industrial land planning and development market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $17.95 billion in 2025 to $19.39 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing industrial expansion, growth in logistics and warehousing demand, rising manufacturing investments, early formation of industrial corridors, increased government-backed land development initiatives.

The industrial land planning and development market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $26.96 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing development of integrated industrial townships, rising focus on sustainable industrial zones, increasing automation in land development planning, expansion of regional manufacturing hubs, increased adoption of smart infrastructure. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for industrial parks and logistics zones, rising development of innovation and research hubs, expansion of energy and utility infrastructure sites, growing need for organized industrial clusters, increasing preference for integrated industrial planning.

The anticipated rise in industrialization is expected to boost the growth of the industrial land development market in the future. As economies develop and expand, the demand for industrial spaces, such as manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and distribution centers - will rise to meet the requirements of various sectors. This increase in industrial activity will require the development of new land and the optimization of existing sites to facilitate production and logistics operations. For instance, in September 2023, the National Bureau of Statistics of China, a government agency, reported that industrial production in China rose by 5.10% in July 2024 compared to the same month in the previous year. Similarly, India saw a 5.90% increase in industrial production in May 2024 compared to the same month in the prior year. Thus, the growth in industrialization is driving the expansion of the industrial land development market.

Major companies operating in the industrial land planning and development market are focusing on introducing technological innovations such as artificial intelligence-powered 3D planning platforms to enhance land-use visualization, speed up site evaluation, and improve design collaboration. An artificial intelligence-powered 3D planning platform integrates real-time geospatial data, generative modeling, and cloud-based simulations to enable planners and developers to optimize site layouts and infrastructure alignment within minutes - unlike traditional 2D tools that rely on manual revisions and step-by-step analysis. For instance, in May 2025, Strategis Groep, a Netherlands-based technology company, launched the 3D Cityplanner platform, an AI-driven urban and industrial planning software built to model, simulate, and optimize development sites in real time. The platform incorporates zoning rules, infrastructure information, and environmental considerations to produce interactive 3D layouts, supports multi-user collaboration, and reduces the cost and time typically associated with conventional feasibility studies.

In November 2024, Mahindra Lifespace Developers Limited, an India-based real estate and infrastructure development enterprise, partnered with Sumitomo Corporation to scale its Industrial Clusters business in India. The partnership between Mahindra Lifespaces and Sumitomo Corporation aims to further expand world-class integrated industrial ecosystems, draw global manufacturing investments, and foster sustainable industrial growth. Sumitomo Corporation is a Japan-based diversified conglomerate engaged in trading and investment across various sectors, including infrastructure, energy, and real estate.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs are increasing costs for imported machinery, steel, utility equipment, and infrastructure components used in industrial land development. Manufacturing parks and logistics zones face the greatest impact, especially in regions reliant on foreign machinery such as Asia-Pacific. However, tariffs are supporting domestic manufacturing and driving investment in regionalized industrial infrastructure.
