Environmental Strategy
22
The impact of Argosy’s property investment business on the natural environment is
an increasingly important consideration for investors, tenants and other
stakeholders.
Our environmental strategy reflects our long-term ambition to create vibrant
sustainable workplaces for our tenants. We believe that green buildings have the
potential to provide a number of key business benefits including:
increased marketability;
higher rental rates;
lower operating costs;
higher occupancy;
improved worker productivity and occupant health and well-being;
lower regulatory risk.
We believe that an integrated design approach, where experts and tenants are
involved from the pre-design stage through to occupancy can greatly assist in the
reduction of green development costs.
We are a member of the New Zealand Green Building Council which is dedicated
to accelerating the development and adoption of market based green building
practices.

NZ Market Update
28
Office
Flexible working environments continue to drive a disconnect between employment growth and net absorption. This is
expected to continue with recent transactions demonstrating a move to agile work environments.
Rental growth impacted by new supply – softer in Auckland, reflected in higher incentives, and firmer in Wellington.
The Wellington market continues to show strong demand, with low vacancy for good quality seismically sound space
that is well located. There is a shortage of large floor plate/high quality stock with upward rental growth pressure as a
result. Premium and Grade A vacancy is minimal.
Industrial
Steady economic growth driving occupier demand. Lower interest rates and offshore capital flows driving yields/cap
rates lower.
Continued low supply forecast with challenges around land supply and congestion in Auckland market.
Land values are at historic highs.
New rental benchmarks being set with each new phase as costs of supply increase ($130-140m2 for prime warehouse).
Vacancy at historic lows for both prime and secondary (< 2%).
Retail
Continued increase in online retailing is impacting discretionary retail.
Generally a more negative retail spending outlook. Waning migration, increasing fuel prices and flat housing prices are
providing headwinds.
Support from increasing tourism has ebbed as this growth plateaus.
Approximately 200,000m2 of retail space to be added by 2022.
Large format retail expected to be most secure.
