Real Estate Development honoured for property management
Frankfurt, 9th October 2018. Der Platow Brief, a German online business newsletter, has bestowed the Platow Real Estate Award on Fiege. Der Platow Brief is an information service provided to businesses, capital markets and politics which has been awarding a property prize in the categories of Residential, Commercial Properties, Investments and Special Purpose Properties for the past six years. Kai Alfermann, Managing Director Fiege Real Estate Development, accepted the award in Frankfurt at the end of September.
Platow’s managing director, Albrecht F. Schirmacher, handed the copper time capsule to Kai Alfermann. This is the first time that Fiege received this award. “This acknowledgement honours the development from a transportation company to a globally-operating full-service logistics provider which, in addition to traditional responsibilities, has been increasingly developing integrated customer solutions in areas such as eCommerce, parcel delivery services and especially property management that encompass everything from consultation to the implementation of a supply chain concept”, is how Platow Brief described the decision on the award for Fiege.
