  • China Office Tenant Profile and Demand Outlook | 2017 Chongqing presents the first-ever survey and study of tenant structures of Chongqing Grade A office occupiers in the industry. The survey covers a total of 40 Grade A office buildings that meet with the standards of CBRE’s Grade A office specifications, while the number of occupiers involved exceeds 1,800. The report consists of three sessions – survey, findings and outlook.
     
  • “Survey” session introduces the structure of Chongqing Grade A office occupiers. Sector-wise, finance, service, real estate, retail and trading, and TMT dominate the demand drivers in the respective order; of them, finance accounts 36% of total absorption rate, its share being on par with the levels of tier 1 cities. Foreign companies remained prudent in real estate strategies, whereas home-grown and domestic occupiers continued to express interest in seeking new space, contributing to 90% of aggregate take-up in the market. Demand scale of each individual occupier widely varies from below 100 sq. m. to above 3,000 sq. m., but more than 40% concentrates in the interval of 100-300 sq. m. The medium posts at 309 sq. m., but the average almost doubles to 683 sq. m., suggesting the significant contribution of large-scale demand (>3,000 sq. m.) though accounting only 2.6% of total occupiers.
     
  • “Findings” session taps into the market’s characteristics, latest trends, as well as the puzzles and dilemma that haunted the industry for long.
