CommercialCafe's 2022 Industrial Real Estate Wrapped report ranked the biggest sales and top markets for industrial real estate sales, based on market research data from CommercialEdge. The report explored how top U.S. markets fared in terms of yearly sales volume and average prices per square foot and ranked the 50 largest industrial asset sales from last year.
