LOS ANGELES—Industrial is among a handful of property types that was assigned a “positive” outlook in a recent Barclays forecast on quarterly REIT earnings, and James Breeze gives the sector a similar assessment as he assumes his responsibilities with his new employer. Breeze has joined Colliers International in the newly created position of director of industrial research.
In this capacity, Breeze joins the company's research group, led by chief economist Andrew Nelson. He'll work closely with Colliers' national industrial team led by Dwight Hotchkiss, director of industrial services.
Before joining Colliers, Breeze served as Cushman & Wakefield's research director for the Southwest region and was a member of the firm's US industrial research team. With nearly 12 years' experience, he'll focus on analyzing industrial property trends and compiling Colliers' thought leadership and research reports.
