The cooperation agreement was signed in Stuttgart on 12th July 2004. With the new alliance, the two companies together are represented at more than 37 locations and in 12 European countries. The companies aim at forming a close European network offering the client first-class services in attending end users, international PPP models as well as construction for trades, retail and traffic.
Professor Hans Sommer, Chief Executive of the Drees & Sommer AG, is convinced that the cooperation of Drees & Sommer and Cyril Sweett will optimally supplement each other: "In order to satisfy regional client demands, we will together develop a wide range of locations and complete our service range in the construction and property sectors." That English as well as European clients will profit from the various competencies of the partners, Sommer considers a further advantage.
