If you are searching for industrial space for lease in Lodi, you are looking at a quieter, lower-congestion alternative to central Stockton that still sits on the Highway 99 and I-5 logistics spine. Lodi runs 10 to 15 miles north of downtown Stockton, anchors the north end of San Joaquin County, and carries a distinct wine-industrial character you will not find in the rest of the metro. This guide breaks down what warehouse and industrial space actually costs to lease in Lodi in 2026, where the inventory sits, and what to check before you sign.
Lodi Industrial Lease Rates in 2026
Lodi industrial space is quoted on a NNN (triple net) basis, meaning you pay a base rent plus a pro-rata share of property taxes, insurance, and maintenance (CAM). NNN charges typically add $0.10 to $0.25 per square foot per year on top of the base rate. Some smaller bays and older buildings are leased gross or modified-gross, so always confirm the structure before comparing two listings.
As of 2026, Lodi asking rents run roughly $6.00 to $7.80 per square foot per year NNN, which sits in the middle of the Stockton MSA band (source: our 2026 Stockton warehouse lease rate analysis, built from active listing data and cross-referenced with Lee & Associates Q1 2026 and Colliers Q1 2026 San Joaquin County). Lodi lands above South Stockton’s value tier and below the Port of Stockton premium:
| Market | Asking rent (NNN) | Positioning |
|---|---|---|
| Port of Stockton | $7.20-$12.00/SF/yr | Deep-water port, dual rail, I-5 |
| Lodi | $6.00-$7.80/SF/yr | Hwy 99, quiet, wine-industrial |
| North Stockton | $5.40-$8.40/SF/yr | Mixed older and flex, Hwy 99/I-5 |
| South Stockton | $4.80-$7.20/SF/yr | Oldest small-bay, lowest basis |
| Modesto | $6.00-$10.20/SF/yr | Hwy 99, no port, lowest big-market basis |

To estimate your monthly base rent on any listing:
Monthly base rent = (annual $/SF/yr rate × square footage) ÷ 12
A 10,000 SF Lodi warehouse at $6.60/SF/yr NNN works out to $5,500 per month base rent, plus CAM. The same building in the Port of Stockton submarket at $9.00/SF/yr would run $7,500 per month, so for a tenant who does not need port or rail access, the Lodi discount is real money over a five-year term.
Lodi Industrial Space by Corridor
Lodi industrial inventory clusters along a few corridors, and which one fits depends on your clear-height, loading, and use needs:
Turner Road / Beckman Road
The established industrial spine of Lodi. A mix of warehouse, light manufacturing, and contractor space, much of it serving both the Lodi market and the broader north-county area. Grade-level and some dock-high loading, Class B and C product, and the deepest supply of mid-size warehouse in the city.
- Product: Established warehouse and light manufacturing, Class B/C
- Typical size: 3,000-50,000 SF
- Tenant profile: Warehousing, manufacturing, contractors, distribution
Guild Avenue / Highway 99 Corridor
The eastern industrial pocket along Highway 99, with better truck access and a mix of warehouse and distribution product. This is where tenants who need quick 99 access concentrate.
- Product: Warehouse and distribution, mixed vintage
- Typical size: 5,000-75,000 SF
- Tenant profile: Distribution, regional logistics, warehousing
Wine-Industrial and Ag-Processing Space
Lodi is the heart of a major wine appellation, and that shapes its industrial demand. Crush facilities, barrel and bottle storage, co-packing, and ag-processing space stay structurally tight because the wine economy keeps absorbing well-configured buildings. If your use is food-grade, temperature-sensitive, or wine-related, expect competition for the right building and move fast on good space.
- Product: Crush, storage, co-packing, ag-processing
- Typical size: 5,000-100,000+ SF
- Tenant profile: Wineries, co-packers, food and beverage, cold-adjacent

Why Tenants Lease in Lodi
1. Lower Congestion Than Central Stockton
Lodi offers a calmer operating environment than the Port and central Stockton corridors, with less truck congestion and easier in-and-out for local service and distribution tenants. For a business whose trucks are coming and going all day, that matters.
2. Highway 99 and I-5 Positioning
Highway 99 runs through Lodi and connects it 15 minutes south to Stockton, 45 minutes north to Sacramento, and west to I-5 for Bay Area freight. That makes Lodi a workable distribution point for tenants serving both the Sacramento and Stockton markets without paying either market’s premium.
3. Wine and Ag-Industrial Demand
The Lodi appellation anchors a steady base of wine, co-packing, and ag-processing demand. If your use fits that economy, Lodi is one of the few places in the MSA where you are near suppliers, labor, and peers in the same industry.
4. North-County Customer Base
Lodi, Woodbridge, Galt, and the surrounding north-county communities are a real customer base for contractors, trades, and local distributors. A central Lodi yard serves that area better than a space down in south Stockton.
What to Check Before You Lease in Lodi
- Clear height. Older Turner and Beckman buildings run 14 to 20 feet clear. If you are stacking racking, confirm the height before you fall for the rate.
- Loading type. Grade-level versus dock-high changes your whole operation. Much of the older Lodi stock is grade-level only; confirm before you commit.
- Power. Verify amperage and phase. Manufacturing, co-packing, and refrigeration uses often need three-phase power an older building may not have.
- Yard and truck access. If you need trailer staging or outdoor storage, confirm the yard is paved, sized for your trucks, and zoned for it.
- NNN load. Ask for the actual CAM, tax, and insurance figures, not an estimate. On older buildings deferred maintenance can push CAM higher than the headline rate suggests.
- Lease structure. Confirm NNN versus gross before comparing listings. A low gross rate and a low NNN base rate are not the same number.
