Capital.fr: Kardham is developing new ambitions

Can you introduce us to Kardham?

Kardham has a rich heritage of Amsycom, 25 years of experience and expertise in real estate. But I am happy to speak of a year zero for Kardham as we embark on a new strategy, with a lot of ambition. Currently, the company has a turnover of 37 million euros and employs 200 people. We have tripled our size in 5 years. Our goal is to double it again in the next 5 years.

What exactly are your jobs?

Kardham's mission is to help major clients design and implement their real estate strategy, from design to development to construction, with top priority ensuring that people who live in our buildings feel better there than elsewhere. Our activities revolve around three businesses. Kardham Conseil, which covers a whole range of value-added services aimed at optimizing the real estate space given its multiple requirements in economic, technical, managerial, environmental terms, etc. The second business relates to architecture, in all its facets, with our firm Kardham Cardete Huet Architecture which employs 80 people and is today one of the Top 10 French firms. Finally, a third business, Kardham Aménagement is developing know-how in the design of spaces, again through a comprehensive and turnkey approach.

Who are your clients ?

They are essentially large accounts. We work for half of the CAC 40 companies and participate in the creation of offices, stadiums, airports, convention centers ...

Kardham has 8 locations in France. What about abroad and what are your international ambitions?

It is important in our businesses to be close to our customers in order to provide tailor-made services, hence the importance of this network at the national level which can be explained by the choice we have. supporting our large account customers, wherever they are installed. As for the international market, we have been present for more than 10 years in Belgium, with an agency in Brussels. At the end of 2016, with a Moroccan partner, Saraya Holding, we created a joint venture in Morocco with the ambition to support multinational companies in their construction, rehabilitation and development projects in Morocco and in other countries. from Africa. Our growth clearly depends on the international market. The expertise of our architectural firm, recognized far beyond France, as well as the close relations we have with our partner, Gensler (the largest architectural firm in the world with more than 5,000 employees). ), are undeniable assets for our development, serenely.
