Entreposto

Grupo Entreposto is active in this area through the company Entreposto Gestão Imobiliária, S.A.

Formed in early 1990 for the purpose of concentrating and managing the Group's real estate, it consists primarily of the facilities belonging to the concessions of various vehicle, agricultural machinery and industrial product brands represented in the country and by various other dispersed assets.

One of these assets is now called Edifício Entreposto, purchased in 1992, located in the East of Lisbon where a major urban regeneration programme took place thanks to Expo 1998, with which this building was associated, firstly by renovating its outer façade, and later by converting it from predominantly industrial use to tertiary sector use. It is now one of the largest office blocks in the city of Lisbon, home to some 20 companies, of which only five belong to the Group, and employing a total of between 1500 and 2000 people.

In addition to redeveloping the Edifício Entreposto building, which gave the company considerable expertise in the field of offices, EGI would start a new trend in real estate promotion outside the automobile business with the purchase in 2001 of a building in Baixa Pombalina, the subject of extensive renovation and successful marketing.

With the same objective; property development for housing and services, the following housing projects would subsequently be launched: the blocks of flats "Patos do Sado", in Alcácer do Sal, "Lux de Tavira Residence", in Luz de Tavira, "Convento das Bernardas Residence" - rehabilitation of a former convent in Tavira, and "Casas do Parque" in Porto, and a project in the service sector: an office building adjacent to the existing Edifício Entreposto. All these are projects that are underway or about to start, but others are under development in the Lisbon urban regeneration area and in vehicle retail in the metropolitan areas of Lisbon and Porto.

Distinction for the quality of its projects, in some cases involving unique features, for its strategic location and for specialization in niche markets, are factors common to almost all projects currently underway and in development and that EGI intends to maintain and strengthen in terms of its future positioning in the market. It does nevertheless maintain permanent support for the Group's retail network, both by seeking new installations and by adapting existing ones to current conditions in the automotive market.
