În emisiunea ZF și CEC Bank, CEO-ul NestPlus a prezentat planul grupului: un fond de investiții în retail, de lansat în a doua jumătate a anului, gândit să dețină și să opereze parcurile pe care grupul le dezvoltă — și frâna reală a pieței, autorizarea, care întinde ciclul unei investiții la 24–36 de luni.

July 2026 · Plaza · Vitan Plaza · Retail
The Romanian fitness operator secures a full-floor club above the gallery — anchoring the scheme's health-and-fitness level and bringing a proven daily-traffic engine to the Vitan catchment.

With Kaufland and Lidl already trading, the ~16,900 m² retail park and commercial gallery moves towards full opening. Twelve national and international brands will serve a catchment of over 150,000 people across Brăila and Galați — everyday retail, built and operated by NestPlus.

February 2021 · Living · Hotel Basarab · Hospitality
Born in Perth and rolled out across Europe's capitals, Tribe packs sharp design into smart, compact rooms. Its first Romanian address — 85 rooms — was signed at NestPlus's Basarab site, announced by Accor as part of a double market premiere.
