NIKE

Gent

Executing this project with precision and perfection was no challenge for Meraki despite being requested to achieve this within one of the shortest timeframes. Following the famous slogan “Just Do It” was the team’s approach, seamlessly coordinating and executing every step of the project.

Build

What SAJO has to say!

SAJO, a Montreal-based design-build firm specializing in mid and high-end retail brands, teamed up with Meraki to deliver NIKE’s flagship store in Ghent in record time.

“Nike is one of our clients here in Canada, and they brought us to Europe with this project. It was our first one in Belgium with Nike, and since Belgium is a new market for us, we preferred working with local teams,” explained by V.K., Director @ SAJO.

“The service Meraki provided was amazing. We are very happy and satisfied. Unlike usual practices in Europe, we sent a superintendent on-site full-time from Montreal to oversee everything from start to finish. We sent him because we didn’t know Belgium, we didn’t know Meraki in terms of operations. Maxime sent glowing reviews back to us. He was very happy with how well everyone worked together.”

The collaboration entailed doing all the interior tenant improvements of the 800 square metre store. “The landlord gives the core and shell, the structure, the floor, the ceiling, the main electrical and we have to come and do all the rest, the finishing of the walls, the floor, the electrical distribution, the mechanical distribution, the plumbing, putting in the fixtures, the door hardware, etc,” explained by V.K.

Thanks to the “amazing teamwork” with Meraki, everything went according to plan, he added.

“It was essential to be aligned regarding decisions and risk management. Bertrand was always available every time we needed to ask something, as well as his team. Everyone from the Meraki team to the trades on-site was efficient, reactive, and available. Which made our task easier, the project successful, and the client happy.”

This first project in Belgium was a great lesson for SAJO. “ On the next job, we know exactly what to look out for”. The experience with Meraki was such a success that the two companies are now striving for future projects in Belgium….
