Hemsö’s low-risk business model and the strengths we have built up in the company become clearer in tougher market conditions, such as those brought about by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Hemsö aims to be a long-term property partner to the public sector, and that applies in both good times and bad. Our strategy remains firm and it is important that we maintain business as usual to support

our suppliers, tenants and the public sector, says Nils Styf.
