Co-CEO:Logistics Business Strong

We've built a multi-billion dollar business in Japan,said Hamid Moghadam,Co-CEO and Chairman of Colorado-based industrial real estate firm Prologis.There is a need for modern large logistics buildings.As the market leader,we continue to be very optimistic about our prospects in Japan.We're promoting our high seismic standards of newer facilities that we build securely.There is increased demand from reconstruction.Even incomplete facilities are 70% leased.China is in the very early innings of building infrastrcture for logistics.I can see our business prospering in China for the next 20-30 years.The market is pretty remarkable.Recovery is probably most advanced in the U.S.There's 10% more people today than at the beginning of the financial crisis.We're growing rents in certain European markets.Latin America is simply on fire,and we cannot keep up with the demands of our customers,Mr.Moghadam observed.Prologis(PLD)
