We are very excited to announce the acquisition of the care home property in this brand-new district in central Kalmar. There is a growing need for modern aged care facilities across Sweden and we have been looking to invest in Kalmar for a while. The vision for this district fits perfectly with our investment strategy so we are very pleased to add this property to our portfolio, comments Jonas Nolin, Investment Director, Northern Horizon Sweden.
Sustainability is at the core of our investment strategy, and besides from being modern and well-located, the new aged care home in Kalmar also complies with the ambitious ESG targets that we have for the Fund assets, adds Riikka Moreau, Fund Manager in charge of Aged Care for Northern Horizon.
