AF Gruppen's subsidiary HMB Construction has entered into an agreement to build
121 apartments for Riksbyggen in Gävle city centre. 

The contract is valued at around SEK 160 million, excluding VAT. Planned startup
is at the 2021/2022 turn of the year, with occupation planned for the
autumn/winter 2023. The project will be carried out as a design and build
contract. Provisions have been made for Government investment for the project.

The homes will be in two buildings three and six storeys in height, and will
contain retail premises on the lower floor. The homes are designed in accordance
with Miljöbyggnad Silver.
 
"It is very inspiring to establish residential areas in city districts with a
rich cultural history, and we're looking forward to building homes with
stringent environmental requirements and a good quality of living," says Bård
Frydenlund, EVP with AF Gruppen.

The project is located in the new Godisfabriken area, which is built on historic
ground in the eastern part of Gävle city centre. For almost 100 years the famous
Läkerol lozenge was produced here by the Ahlgrens family company. The new city
district will comprise diverse homes based on both rental and housing
partnerships, terraced houses and student bedsits. In the area there will also
be shops, restaurants, cafes and a market hall that will be built in the former
factory premises.
