Veidekke: To continue refurbishment project in Stockholm

24 May 2024 10:00 CEST

Veidekke's Swedish subsidiary Arcona has entered into an agreement with Genesta,
a real estate fund management company, regarding the next phase of Zinko, a
major refurbishment project at Södermalm, Stockholm. The collaborative design
and build contract has a value of approximately SEK 336 million.

The Zinko project comprises the transformation of approximately 15,700 square
metres of office space and is expected to welcome its first tenants in late
2025. Arcona has been contributing to Genesta's project, which involves
Hornsgatan 122-130, since 2021.

In the project's previous phases, Arcona helped identify alternatives for the
property's development, analyse technical conditions, make calculations, and
plan execution. The new contract includes the actual refurbishment phase, which
involves extensive modernisation with a focus on sustainability, aesthetics and
technology. The property will be certified in accordance with the BREEAM In-Use
standard, aiming to achieve the highest rating, Outstanding.

"Arcona is proud to have been entrusted by Genesta with the completion of the
Zinko project, which preserves and protects period architectural features while
also creating a state of the art, sustainable and attractive hub for both
daytime and evening activities. Our solid, long-standing relationship with
Genesta has been pivotal for the project's success to date," says Peter Kihlman
at Arcona.

Also included in the contract are technology upgrades to all five buildings
included in the project, and the construction of two additional floors to
Hornsgatan 124. As well as providing office space - and a rooftop terrace for
tenants - the Zinko quarter will encourage a bustling city environment, with
space for shops, a fitness centre and restaurants at street level.

The contract is included in the Q2 2024 order book.
