Berkeley Group, a renowned developer of quality homes and neighbourhoods across London, Birmingham, and the South of England, had a successful showcase at the recently-held Cityscape Global in Riyadh. The group saw it as the perfect opportunity to not only meet prospective investors but also show its support for the rapidly expanding Saudi Arabian property sector.
Cityscape Global, a global event celebrating property, community, and the future of living, proved to be the perfect platform for Berkeley Group to showcase its commitment to creating exceptional places to live and strengthening communities. This year, the event witnessed 350 exhibitors from around the world and over 160,000 visitors. The Saudi giga projects, in particular, received significant attention, with some reports indicating there were over $29 billion in sales for local properties.
Berkeley Group’s stand drew plenty of attention during Cityscape with a selection of agents and clients visiting and making enquiries over the course of the four-day event. Several previous buyers also revisited the Berkeley stand, indicating a high level of customer satisfaction. The group’s stand was also visited by His Excellency, the Minister of Housing, Majid Al-Hogail, highlighting Berkeley Group's meaningful contributions to the global real estate sector.
The Berkeley Group stand welcomed approximately 100 visitors per day amidst ongoing high interest in properties in the UK and strong interest in the group’s Birmingham development project. During the exhibition, Berkeley Group also scheduled several site visits to London for Cityscape attendees and made some strategic connections with partners in Saudi Arabia that are knowledgeable about the UK property market.
Adam Demetriou of Berkeley Group MEA commented, “We are absolutely thrilled by the success of our recent visit to Saudi Arabia and are honoured to have participated in an incredible event like Cityscape Global. We recognise the huge demand for international property in Saudi Arabia and the exhibition was the perfect opportunity to showcase our expansion plans and give people a glimpse of all our incredible properties available across the UK. Berkeley Group is excited about our future in the Saudi Arabian market, and we look forward to welcoming visitors from the Kingdom to the UK in the near future.”
Berkeley Group's recent showcase in Saudi Arabia underscores its commitment to creating sustainable, nature-rich communities, and making a positive impact on society and the economy.
