Maryland Industrial Market: 2026 Snapshot

Port, flex and labor figures from named public and brokerage sources, each dated. Updated quarterly.

Space near the Port of Baltimore is tight: Cushman & Wakefield reports port-area industrial inventory reached 97.3% occupancy in Q2 2026.[1] Small-format space is where Oxford buys. NAI KLNB, using CoStar data, reports Columbia flex space 4.2% vacant at $12.50 per SF and Greater Baltimore flex space 7.1% vacant in Q1 2026, and says demand is strongest for functional small- and mid-bay space.[2]

The Port of Baltimore handled about 50 million tons of cargo in 2025, its second-best year ever. Its public terminals moved 887,513 tons of roll-on/roll-off equipment, the most of any U.S. port, along with 1.1 million twenty-foot containers (TEUs) and 2,223 vessels.[3] The federal channel was restored to its full 700-by-50-foot dimensions on June 10, 2024.[4] BWI Marshall handled more than 566 million pounds of cargo in 2025.[5]

August 2026 unemployment (not seasonally adjusted, preliminary) was 3.4% in Howard County, 4.0% in Baltimore County, 4.0% in Wicomico County and 3.5% in Talbot County.[6]

These statistics describe the port, the Baltimore flex segment and county labor markets, not Oxford’s buildings.

FAQ

Selling Industrial Property in Maryland: Common Questions

Yes. Maryland is Oxford's founding market and headquarters location. Oxford currently owns more than 255,000 SF across Maryland, concentrated in Columbia, Owings Mills, the Eastern Shore, and Baltimore.

Oxford targets Class B/C industrial and flex buildings under 50,000 SF, in the $1M–$10M transaction size, with 18-foot-plus clear height preferred. Portfolio deals within this range are welcome.

Yes. Oxford sizes offers against stabilized potential, not current occupancy, and has acquired Maryland buildings with vacancy, deferred maintenance, and environmental complexity that lenders will not finance. Oxford's ability to close all-cash removes the financing contingency that causes traditional buyers to walk from these situations.

Oxford routinely closes 30–45 days from LOI execution, with a fastest close of 28 days, because acquisitions use 100% proprietary family capital with no lender approval process.
