EXPO REAL 2016: Bilfinger GVA’s parent company has changed its name to Apleona in an announcement made on stage at Expo Real in Munich by chief executive Jochen Keysberg.
The rebrand will happen later this year and follows the recent sale of parent company Bilfinger Building and Facility to private equity firm EQT.
Bilfinger GVA has not changed its name but a rebranding is likely.

Gerry Hughes, chief executive of Bilfinger GVA in the UK, said: “Our new parent brand name marks another step towards our wider vision for growth.
“As the UK’s leading real estate advisory firm this is an opportunity to build upon our market position not just here in the UK but throughout continental Europe.”
