Collen Construction opens Frankfurt office
An Taoiseach, Enda Kenny has officially opened the Frankfurt Office of Collen Construction during a two-day trade visit to Germany. This marks the launch of the family-owned construction company in Europe where its focus will be on construction of turn-key data centres. Over the past five years, Collen Construction has successfully completed the construction of 1.6 million sq ft of hi-tech space and has expanded its operations into the German market.
The company is now seeking to secure work in other European countries and with the support of Enterprise Ireland has already established strategic partners to deliver built-solutions Europe-wide.
Welcoming today’s news, CEO of Enterprise Ireland, Julie Sinnamon said: “Collen Construction continues to push the boundaries of construction in the fast-paced data centre industry. Enterprise Ireland is proud to support Collen in progress towards becoming a market-leader in the German data-centre construction sector.”
She added: “Our ambition is to inspire more Irish companies to build their scale and expand their reach to markets beyond the UK, following the UK’s decision to leave the EU. We look forward to working closely with Collen to optimise their full international growth potential, creating and sustaining jobs in Ireland.”
