Market capitalisation

EUR205m

Based in Greece, AVAX operates through three main segments – construction, concessions and real estate, and marinas – with a large international footprint. The largest segment, construction, is involved in large-scale private and public works, with unique experience among its peers in energy infrastructure and subway construction.

The Greek construction market is worth around €7.5bn and can be split into two distinct sectors: housebuilding (c 30%) and civil engineering (c 70% non-residential construction, including commercial and infrastructure projects), including both private and public works. According to ELSTAT, overall average construction activity fell by just 9.5% in 2020, before increasing 7% in 2021 and 24.4% in 2022, the highest level since 2017 in absolute terms.
