"Online shopping boom is driving growth for warehouse REITs"
"Online shopping boom is driving growth for warehouse REITs"Put this up over @ BTB.UN, but AAR is mentioned briefly in the article
https://www.canadianbusiness.com/investing/online-shopping-retail-warehouse-reits/
"The growth in e-commerce is shaking up another industry: real estate. E-commerce providers may not have much need for mall space, but to fulfil their customers’ orders quickly, they need warehouses. In recent years, Amazon, Walmart and others have spent billions buying, building and leasing industrial real estate. Growth in occupied warehouse space far outstrips the same for retail space."
