Norwest Holst, one of the country’s twenty leading construction firms, expanded its activities among private sector customers. Its major successes in this area include the Oracle car park and multiplex cinema (PDD Architects) for Hammerson; the Milton Keynes (Mosscrop Associates) and Uxbridge office complexes (Hamilton Associates); the Leicester warehouses built for Kingspark Prologis (Architects: Stephen George Partners) and the Southampton Magistrates Court (architects: Hampshire County Architects department).

The company’s development potential is connected to its ability to be attuned to its customers and adapt to its markets. For Sogea, the focus will be on providing the most comprehensive response possible to all the expectations of its public and private sector clients. Project financing, financial engineering, planning, design, building, maintenance, property management... all Sogea’s capabilities will be at the service of its customers. PROJECT STRUCTURING Successes in Toulouse and Limoges In 1999, Sogea developed the activities of Socogim, a subsidiary specialized in project structuring and pre-development. In Toulouse, Socogim won an assistance contract with the Immochan company. This contract provides that Socogim will control a 65 ha property on the edge of the city. The company will carry out development studies and identify operators, while Sogea will perform the work. In Limoges, a project structuring operation has been started for the design and construction of 17 luxury housing units in the city centre (architect: G. Valleron). Socogim will carry out the studies and be involved under a property development contract, signing a works contract with Sogea Sud-Ouest. The client is the owner of the land, a local industrialist. 17
