New York, Oct. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Asia Pacific Self Storage Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p06325602/?utm_source=GNW
This is based on parameters such as ownership/property type, land rate, and investment models.

Key Highlights
The growing population in Asia-Pacific, as indicated in the graph alongside the urbanization, public awareness, and the expansion of small enterprises, especially in countries like Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, and so on, are analyzed to boost the demand for self-storage facilities in the region.
Additional factors driving the demand for self-storage facilities include e-commerce expansion, increased remote working and flexible office space, ongoing migration into cities, and the rapid development of renters.
The growing living space costs in the region significantly contribute to the market growth rate. For instance, the living space per person in Hong Kong is much less compared to developed economies like the United States. To provide more context, according to the Census and Statistics Department of Hong Kong, in 2021, the average living space of public rental housing tenants in Hong Kong was 13.5 sq. m per person, and it has historically remained between 13 to 13.5 sq. m from 2017 to 2021.
Urbanizable/developable land is both expensive and scarce. Building bye-laws and planning regulations are two ways that local governments control and manage development. Many cities have development control laws created years ago and have been modified haphazardly without enough empirical proof of their effects.
COVID-19 has impacted several economies and industries; however, some industries continue to expand steadily. The self-storage industry has not been severely affected by the pandemic and has grown gradually with the consumer demand for storage. The past two years of the pandemic have seen enormous individual relocations and office space reductions. Due to this circumstance, the demand for self-storage has increased at an unprecedented rate.

Key Market Trends

Rising Consumerism and Population Density is Driving the Market Growth

Self-storage facilities are expanding steadily in the region, despite many businesses struggling during difficult economic times. Demand for self-storage is surging as a culture of consumerism, the expansion of e-commerce, the constricting availability of living space, and the growing population drive demand from individuals and families for safe and efficient facilities for storing personal items.
Growing urbanization is one of the significant factors positively driving the market growth. Growing urban populations result in more tenants who move around frequently and smaller, more expensive living areas in cities. Self-storage businesses have established themselves in Asia’s more populous and affluent regional cities. Affluent neighborhoods tend to have a greater propensity for inhabitants to buy luxuries that take up more room in their homes. There is an increasing demand for specialized storage options, such as climate-controlled storage containers, to preserve expensive goods such as wine, antique furniture, or electronics.
In the region, the smallest average dwelling sizes are found in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Tokyo. Singapore has a dense population and the smallest dwelling sizes in Asia, with an average of 730 square feet. More than 75% of residential units lack a storage area. According to information from the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), housing prices have increased in Singapore over the last five years. Further, the growing population density in countries such as China and India contributes to the market growth rate during the forecast period. Self-storage companies have expanded all over Asia, remodeling aging facilities and preparing brand-new construction. Additionally, to meet the market’s shifting demands, the nation is expected to experience an increase in demand for long-term storage users, resulting in notable expansions in the region.

Japan to have the Largest Lettable Area in the Asia Pacific Region

In Japan, the self-storage market has gradually gained recognition among consumers and as a new real estate investment product, leading to market expansion in the past few years. Decentralizing the housing of furniture and valuables, stockpiling survival food for emergency and natural disasters such as earthquakes, and attention to the industry have intensified with self-storage.
Currently, there are three self-storage business classifications in Japan: trunk room, rental-storage space, and rental container. First is the so-called "trunk-room"managed under the Warehousing Business Act. These operators must repay customers for the stored property. Next is a class called a "rental-storage space"that uses rooms set up in a building or specialized facility for leasing. The last class is called a "rental container,"mainly set up outdoors for rental.
Further, the warehousing industry, which focused only on a business-to-business format, has expanded its business to the trunk-room business to target the general consumer as a new business type. Additionally, trunk room self-storage facilities are gaining significant traction, with the leading market vendors in the country offering innovative solutions. Self-storage facilities are called "trunk rooms"in Japan.
For instance, in Moreover, according to the latest estimates based on the Annual Supply Survey conducted in November 2021 by Quraz, the storage room market (including indoor and outdoor) has expanded significantly to JPY 67 billion, doubling over the past ten years. Further, according to the survey, the new storage needs have arisen due to changes in the living environment, such as the rapid penetration of telework and online learning and the ongoing stay-at-home lifestyle.
