Manufacturing, Reshoring & The Future of Industrial

Welcome To The Industrial Real Estate Show. Chad sits down with Professor Tim Minshall, author of How Things Are Made.

We dig into why manufacturing knowledge disappeared from public view, the “illusion of explanatory depth,” and how a simple roll of toilet paper reveals global supply chains, energy, water, and decades of process know-how. We also tackle reshoring, industrial commons, and what governments and companies can realistically do over the next 5–10 years.

Discussion Topics:

How Manufacturing Drives Industrial Real Estate

Reshoring and the Return of Making Things Locally

Supply Chain Resilience vs. Efficiency
