Conficap acquires helicopter pilot training facility in Aviapolis, Vantaa
Conficap acquires a helicopter pilot training facility in the vicinity of Helsinki Airport. The tenant of the property is Coptersafety Oy, which is one of the world’s leading helicopter pilot training organizations. The sellers of the property consist of a group of private individuals who work in the field of helicopter pilot training.
The facility is a modern property completed in 2017. The leasable area of the property totals at 3200 sqm. The space consists of a simulator hall and modern office spaces, and thanks to its adjustable floorplan, it can be used for versatile business operations. There is also permitted building right on the lot which allows expansions of the training facility. The property is located in the Aviapolis district in Vantaa at Pyhtäänkorventie 11 A.
The training center is located in the immediate vicinity of Helsinki Airport. The majority of the training facility’s clients come from outside of Finland, so connections for international visitors are extremely important.
”We have recently focused on developing our real estate business by acquiring new office and logistics properties and by selling off properties outside Finland that no longer fit our new strategy. The Aviapolis helicopter pilot training facility is an excellent addition to our portfolio. We look forwards to becoming part of Coptersafety’s unique and internationally recognized business in our capacity as the owners of the facility,” states Atte Köykkä, Director, Real Estates of Conficap Oy.
”The acquisition process went smoothly and in good cooperation with Conficap. We expect our lessor to understand the special requirements of our business and the needs of our international clientele. As a committed and professional owner, Conficap is just the right partner for us,” comments Christer Niemi, CEO of Coptersafety Oy.
Conficap is a Finnish family-run company with over hundred years of history. The group consists of four business sectors. Conficap owns technical building services company Are and conducts large-scale business operations in property and investment sectors. Additionally, Conficap has strategic listed shareholdings.
