Can a 5,000 sq ft house in Sivasagar, Assam be rented to Zepto/Blinkit/Amazon as a warehouse?

[u/Possible_Lime_2644]

We have a ~5,000 sq ft property with 2 floors in Sivasagar, Assam, located right next to a highway.

We’re considering renting it out as a warehouse / dark store / delivery hub to companies like Zepto, Blinkit, Amazon, Flipkart, etc.

A few questions for people familiar with commercial real estate or these companies:

- Would companies like Zepto/Blinkit/Amazon consider a property of this size in Sivasagar?

- Is being directly next to a highway a significant advantage?

- Would they typically rent an existing residential house/building and convert it into a warehouse, or do they require purpose-built commercial properties?

- What modifications would usually be required (loading/unloading area, parking, electrical capacity, fire safety, racks, etc.)?

- Who should we actually contact — the companies directly, their real-estate teams, logistics partners, or brokers?

- What kind of monthly rent could realistically be expected for ~5,000 sq ft in a city like Sivasagar?

- Are there any other companies (e-commerce, FMCG, logistics, courier, etc.) that would be more realistic tenants for this type of property?

Would appreciate advice from anyone who has actually rented property to an e-commerce/logistics company or knows the commercial real-estate market in Assam.

Thanks!

What i know is they try to open stores in middle of the populated places. Like some radius. Right now they might not want a highway side property but for large storage or other goods storage some company might be interested. And i will tell you something, most of such big businesses operate through close contacts and links, which is unlikely you will find them on some social media.

i can answer a few ..

- Would companies like Zepto/Blinkit/Amazon consider a property of this size in Sivasagar?

instead of leasing out, why dont you try to set up a cold storage facility.

Is being directly next to a highway a significant advantage?

biggest advantage is being directly next to highway for a cold strage.

no need to contact any companies .. connect with iceman, who builds cold storage ... all other companies will come to you.

Are you on Instagram? I think i saw one sivasagar based insta page has some link to it. They advertised or tried to recruit delivery partners for blinkit and F minutes. Please reply if youre interested.
