This week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Anna Fransson, Manager of the Spanish-Swedish Chamber of Commerce, to Centro Plaza. As active members of the Chamber, this visit provided a magnificent opportunity to strengthen our ties and highlight the fundamental role played by the Swedish business community in Marbella.

A Shared Ecosystem of Success

During her visit, Anna gained first-hand insight into the evolution of our centre. Since its inauguration in 1990, Centro Plaza has been a pioneer on the Costa del Sol, successfully integrating leisure, retail, and office spaces within an open and cosmopolitan environment. With a 98% occupancy rate and over 120 establishments, we have established ourselves as the quintessential Meeting Point of Nueva Andalucía.

What makes this ecosystem unique is the synergy between its members. As our General Manager, Carlos García Perujo, noted during the meeting::

“The Swedish community is a vital gear in the mechanism of Centro Plaza. As entrepreneurs, they provide cutting-edge vision and professionalism; as clients, their loyalty drives us to maintain the highest standards of excellence.”

Synergies on Site: Visiting Handelsbanken and Gonvel & Kamph

The Chamber’s visit also included meetings with other leading firms that, in addition to being members of the institution, have chosen Centro Plaza as the headquarters for their operations.

Anna met with the team at Handelsbanken, a benchmark in mortgages and real estate operations for the Nordic market since 1989, as well as the prestigious firm Gonvel & Kamph, specialists in legal and tax consultancy for Swedish clients in Spain. These visits underscore that our centre is the strategic gateway for the Scandinavian market, where Nordic professionalism and the Mediterranean lifestyle converge to create an unparalleled business environment.

We would like to thank Anna Fransson for her visit, the engaging conversation, and her constant support in boosting the visibility of the Swedish business community in Marbella.
