BESTSELLER signed with MT Højgaard to resume construction of its new office building is Aarhus

THE CONSTRUCTION OF BESTSELLER’S NEW OFFICE BUILDING IN AARHUS HAS BEEN RESUMED. THE BUILDING IS EXPECTED TO BE FINISHED BY SPRING 2015.

Brande, Denmark, 14-11-2013 — /EuropaWire/ — BESTSELLER has signed an agreement with the contracting company MT Højgaard to take over the general contract on the office building at the Aarhus waterfront.

The agreement has been drawn up after the former general contractor Pihl & Søn went bankrupt earlier this year.

The bankruptcy has caused substantial financial losses for BESTSELLER, but the new agreement actually means that the schedule remains on time even though the construction work has been on hold throughout this autumn.

“We are pleased with the agreement with MT Højgaard and even though it has been a long and hard process, we look forward to getting going again with what it’s all about – finishing the construction to the benefit of our colleagues,” says BESTSELLER’s Construction Project Manager, Anders Krogh Hansen.
