Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB: Wihlborgs to build new facility for Caldic who is co-locating to Malmö
Wihlborgs has signed a 20-year agreement with the food solutions company Caldic Ingredients Nordic for a new 10,000 m² facility at Galoppen 1 in Fosie, eastern Malmö. Caldic is moving production as well as offices to the facilities, creating around 90 jobs. Occupancy will take place in autumn 2025.
Caldic is one of the world's top players in special ingredients for food, pharmaceuticals, personal care and industrial products. The company has international headquarters in Rotterdam and approximately 4,000 employees around the world. The Nordic operations are headquartered in Frihamnen in Malmö, with production facilities in Knislinge as well as in Rødovre, Denmark, with sales offices in Denmark, Norway and Finland. The new location will co-locate the two production facilities and the Nordic headquarters.
The building will be certified in line with SGBC level Gold.
The investment of SEK 264 million includes land acquisition of SEK 23 million.
"At Caldic, we're very pleased with this project. It marks a clear advance in our continued development in the Nordics, which began here in Malmö in 1923 as AB R Lundberg. That means we have over 100 years of history in the city. The investment that Caldic is now making is clear proof of our confidence, both in our local organisation and in the Nordics as a market. We have a team that will create significant growth in the coming year as well," says Gustav Larsson, Managing Director of Caldic Ingredients Nordic.
"We are very pleased that we could meet Caldic's needs for further developing their operations. This will be a modern building with high standards for installations, technical systems and certification. For Wihlborgs, it's important that properties for industry and production also have high sustainability ambitions," says Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs.
