Castellum building more facilities for Ahlsell in Gothenburg
Castellum is planning new construction of a second retail outlet for Ahlsell in the Gothenburg region, this time located in Hisings Backa. A 10-year leasing agreement has been signed for the building, comprising approx. 4,600 sq.m. The investment will amount to approx. MSEK 82, including existing building rights at MSEK 12. Construction start is planned for January, 2020, with occupancy calculated for March, 2021.
Ahlsell is a Nordic distributor of installation components, tools and equipment required by installation specialists, construction companies and property managers as well as industrial and power companies, including those in the public sector. Castellum completed a new regional office and retail outlet for Ahlsell in the adjacent city of Mölndal in 2019. A new phase in the cooperation has now begun.
“We’re extremely grateful that Ahlsell has once again placed trust in us to build their new operating facilities. We’ve enjoyed really good experiences from our previous cooperation. The fact that the facilities will be built in a very attractive location, with great access to transportation channels, makes the project even more exciting,” says Henrik Saxborn, CEO at Castellum AB.
The building will be environmentally certified according to Miljöbyggnad’s Silver level, indicating it will be optimized for low energy consumption and a favourable interior climate, as well as being constructed in materials which feature low environmental impact.
“Now that the new Castellum-built facilities in Mölndal have been such a success, we’re taking the next step in the region to become even better at providing customers with all future requirements. The new building will be even larger and more modern,” says Magnus Häggström, Sales Director Retail at Ahlsell Sweden, Region West.
