Growth in online grocery sales could increase demand for industrial cold storage space, causing 35 million square feet of cold storage to shift from retail locations, according to a report by CBRE. Online purchases will make up 13% of all grocery sales by 2024, the report states. California would likely have the most industrial cold storage at nearly 400 million cubic feet.
