Company
This section describes who ESMA Industry is, what purpose the company pursues and the principles on which decisions are taken. It contains no statement that cannot be substantiated.
Purpose
ESMA Industry develops property projects, realises them and sells them. In doing so the company assumes the entire process – from finding and assessing a site through project development and construction to the sale of the completed property or apartment.
Our aim is not only to develop and realise exceptional property. Our aim is to build a company that convinces through structure, quality and long-term thinking.
“Our name is our promise. Every decision should strengthen it.”
Self-conception
How ESMA Industry works – and how it expressly does not.
Values
Four values form the basis of every decision. They are set out as binding in the ESMA Company Playbook.
The ESMA standard applies in every area – from market analysis through land acquisition and project development to construction, sale and client care.
Our reputation is not created through advertising but through reliable conduct over many years. Trust takes time and can be damaged by a single ill-considered decision.
The property industry changes slowly. We see an opportunity in this: question traditional processes, use technology where it serves a purpose, develop standards further.
We do not develop projects for a few years but buildings intended to outlast generations. Responsibility applies towards residents, investors, partners and municipalities.
Leadership
ESMA Industry is led by its two co-founders.
