Figure 3.3 shows the proportion of industrial properties in each size range for the portfolio and London. London has a fairly uniform distribution of sizes, whilst properties in the wider portfolio are heavily weighted towards the smaller size categories. The differences in the larger categories are stark, 25% of London industrial properties are in the 10,000 to 25,000 square foot range (929m 2 to 2,322m 2 ), 25 for example, compared to just 3% of industrial properties in The Arch Company portfolio. 75% of The Arch Company portfolio is in the smallest two size categories, compared to just 21% across London. This highlights how The Arch Company properties are likely better suited to smaller businesses.
