COMPANY’S EVOLUTION

In the 80s, Gmp’s main property assets were office floors in buildings not in exclusive ownership and a 100%-owned small office building. 

In 1979, Gmp developed its first office building, Luchana 23. At the end of this period, Gmp focused its investment solely on developing office buildings.

In 1989, Gmp set up IN-PLANIA, an internal division specialising in the design and fit-out of professional and office spaces, with the aim of delivering a comprehensive service to its clients.

In the 90s, Gmp’s business model changed substantially in order to focus on quality as a strategic value.  In pursuit of this goal, it intensified its development activity, disinvested in offices in apartment blocks and concentrated its investment in wholly owned buildings in prime areas of Madrid. 

In 1997, Gmp and GE Real Estate set up a joint venture in order to handle new investments.  Rent Inmobilaria was acquired as a result of this agreement, with property assets of over 120,000 m².

During this stage, Gmp started to develop business parks and turnkey projects for leading companies, while stepping up its office investment business by reaching a strategic alliance with GE Real Estate.

In 2001, it developed its first turnkey business park, Parque Norte, for Telefónica, Sun Microsystems and Astra Zeneca.

A year later, in 2002, it developed the business centre Castellana Norte for the company Airtel, now Vodafone, the first business park in the new extension to the Paseo de la Castellana.

In 2006, it developed the building Hermosilla 3 to house the headquarters of the legal firm Garrigues, the only business campus in Madrid’s prime district.

During this decade, and through the joint venture reached with GE Real Estate, the Company acquired the portfolio of logistical properties and offices owned by the German fund Stodiek, the Cortefiel group headquarters–located in calle Llano Castellano 51-, the Barajas 1building -in calle Trespaderne 29- and the Condesa de Venadito 1 building.

In 2007, Gmp sold the Foresta business park to BBVA, covering more than 100,000 m². In addition, it signed a sale & leaseback agreement with the bank through which Gmp acquired four of its principal buildings in Madrid: Castellana 81, Goya 14, Alcalá 16 and Vía de los Poblados. This transaction enabled Gmp to balance its portfolio in terms of location.

This same year, Gmp refinanced its company debt until 2017 in order to achieve financial stability and robustness.

In 2009, Gmp was the first Spanish property owning real estate company to obtain AENOR certification for its integrated system for Quality, Environmental and Health and Safety in the Workplace Management  according to standards UNE- EN-ISO 9001:2008, UNE-EN-ISO 14001:2004 and OHAS 18001:2007.

In October, Gmp agreed to Euro Cervantes SOCIMI S.A. becoming a minority shareholder, which was indirectly wholly owned by GIC, the Singapore sovereign wealth fund.  This long-term strategic alliance seeks to stimulate growth through selective investment in office buildings that generate value and enable Gmp to leverage growth potential in the market and consolidate its position.
