Desk News — An Evening With Richmond's Operators at Foreseeson Technology

The host

Foreseeson Technology has operated in Richmond for more than 20 years at 4460 Jacombs Road. Under one roof it runs electronics manufacturing, IT security distribution, electric vehicle charging equipment and software platforms. The EV side was hard to miss: a ChargePoint partner display anchored the room, and Foreseeson's charging work with municipalities and corporations came up more than once. The evening included a tour of the facility.

Why the desk goes

Samuel's practice is industrial sales and leasing only, and Richmond is one of the markets the desk tracks most closely. The people at a Chamber event are the tenants and owners of Richmond's industrial buildings: manufacturers, distributors, contractors and service businesses that need floor, loading, power and a commute their staff will accept. Hearing where they are growing and where they are out of room is worth more than any listing report.

Foreseeson is the north Richmond occupier in miniature. Jacombs Road sits near Bridgeport Road and the Knight Street Bridge, and a company that puts manufacturing, distribution and an office team in one building is exactly what that area was built for. On any Richmond requirement, these are the buildings and the neighbours a client will be comparing against.

A room full of Richmond operators tells you more about demand than any vacancy table.

Thanks

Thanks to the Richmond Chamber of Commerce for organizing and to the Foreseeson team for opening their doors. Richmond businesses that want a plain read on what industrial space is available, what it costs and how the market has moved this year can reach the desk any time.
