The Firm
A trusted partner throughout the development process.
Our mission is to design and build world-class commercial properties.
Established in 1973 as an in-house general contractor, Krismar Construction of Worthe Real Estate Group is a trusted partner throughout the development process. Krismar works closely with clients, architecture and design partners, and trade partners from the earliest stages of projects to deliver cost-effective, high-performing world-class spaces. This formula has brought many successful projects to market within a timeframe much shorter than industry standard.
In 1985, Krismar began to expand its services to outside clients. Krismar continues to use the “owner/builder” approach with all outside clients in the belief that with proper early planning, meaningful cost savings can be achieved without compromising quality or building performance. Vast construction experience, long-time relationships with fine engineers and contractors, care for the protection and serviceability of buildings, and the desire to provide good client service, all provide advantages for Landlords and Tenants alike.
