Thailand’s stock of serviced industrial land plots up 1.5% in H1

WHA Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate was a notable addition.

According to Knight Frank, in H1 2025, the total amount of serviced industrial land plots (SILP) for sale or lease rose by 1.5% to 184,028 rai.

Although the expansion within existing industrial estates drove the increase, a notable new addition during this period was WHA Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate 3.1 (WHA ESIE 3.1), which became available for sale in early 2025.

Here’s more from Knight Frank:

In H1 2025, serviced industrial land plots (SILP) in Thailand remain largely concentrated in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), which accounted for 63.4% of the total SILP, with 116,603 rai available for sale or lease. The region recorded a 2.0% increase from the previous half-year, driven by new supply additions such as WHA Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate 3.1 (WHA ESIE 3.1) and expansions in existing estates. 

Provinces in the EEC, Rayong (38.5%), Chonburi (19.3%), and Chachoengsao (5.6%), played a significant role in supporting this growth, reinforcing the EEC’s position as a key manufacturing base, particularly for the electronics, automotive, and petrochemical sectors.

Although there is no new supply was added in H1 2025, the Central region held the second-largest share at 15.5%. Meanwhile, the Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR) showed the highest growth rate among all regions, expanding by 3.2% H-o-H to reach 12,526 rai. The increase was led by driven by increased investor interest and improved infrastructure access in areas like Samut Prakarn.

Supply in the North, Northeast, South, and West remained unchanged from the previous period. While these areas collectively represent a smaller portion of national SILP, they continue to support local industries and play a complementary role to the country’s core industrial zones.
