*****Honduras: Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula Construction Projects*****

Greetings Colleagues.

For the past 2 or 3 years Honduras is experiencing a construction boom never seen before. The two lasgest cities, Tegucigalpa (the capital) and San Pedro Sula (the industrial capital) in the country are being transformed with the construction of new industrial, commercial and housing complexes. The following are a few examples that illustrate such construction boom:

Regency Tower and Realco: “changing the skyline in Tegucigalpa”


Architect Victor Cuadra, designer of the Regency, Sr. Arturo Giacomín General Manager of Banco Lafise, Sr. Michel Brukirer President and CEO of Realco Investment.

Tegucigalpa, Honduras; "Honduras This Week", 03.31.2008. Realco Investment , a Honduran company with European capital, was specifically created to build both housing and commercial projects for different sectors within Honduras. By the initiative of Capitol Invest Belgium, Realco performed an analysis indicating Honduras is rich in development potential and also happens to have a significant housing deficit of 749,000 units. Realco’s efforts are to try and satisfy part of this demand.

Realco Investment boasts an impressive team: Michel Brukirer, President and CEO of Capitol Invest, Amichai Rubin, Project Manager and Vice- President, along with a professional team of collaborators (partners) who give attention to clients and provide the valuable link between financial institutions and clients.

Located across from Mall Multiplaza in Colonia Lomas del Mayab, Regency will offer tenants a different urban lifestyle: the most exclusive neighbourhood in the city along with luxurious, serene and peaceful surroundings.
