OUR STORY
Each milestone marks our ascent, every chapter outlines our growth, and our steadfast dedication to design excellence drives us forward.
1980s
Setting Our Foundation
Franz Gehriger began his journey with the property management of various commercial and retail spaces. Many of these assets evolved into diverse development projects, laying the groundwork for SwissReal's future.
1990s
Industrial Expansion
Embracing innovative planning and strategic partnerships, SwissReal ventured into the acquisition, development, and construction of numerous industrial projects. Notable achievements include the FedEx Distribution Center at YVR, Ikea Storage Center on Tilbury Island, Schenker Distribution Centre in South Burnaby, alongside several boutique strip malls and office/retail centers.
2000s
A Visionary Shift
The focus shifted towards managing office retails with development potential, notably the Old Stock Exchange. This period saw improvements and tenancy developments, along with a vision to dive into residential development, addressing the need for affordable and premium quality homes.
2010s
Building for the Future
With a sophisticated approach to partnerships and an extensive vision focusing on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, SwissReal employed top global technologies to design and construct North America's first passive Office House. This era celebrated the Old Exchange Building, preserving its heritage while adding a 31-story commercial space managed by SwissReal.
2020's
Residential Portfolio Expansion
Initiating with a transformative Maple Ridge project and expanding to premium, ESG-centric developments in Port Moody and West Vancouver, our strategy targets transit-connected properties, especially in the Tri-Cities.
