EMERIA ORGANISATION CHART
A EUROPEAN BRAND PORTFOLIO
As seen in the organisation chart above, Emeria operates across Europe under various brands, according to our needs, means and objectives in each market. This brand portfolio is the result of an extensive external growth policy over the years, complemented by the creation of ad hoc brands. Each brand, both in France and abroad, plays a role in the success of the Group’s core businesses as well as the ancillary services we offer.
History
The story of Emeria began in 1972, with the incorporation of Foncia in France. Emeria has since expanded its business with acquisitions of real estate services businesses in Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland and the UK. We are focused on improving our technological capabilities to optimize our efficiency and overall business offering. From January 2016 to December 2021, we completed approximately 290 acquisitions, primarily within joint property management, lease management and renting. Our external growth strategy and the development of ancillary service offerings have been key drivers of our historical growth. The following are the key milestones in our corporate history.
