Work in a district that welcomes the future!

Here, you'll find modern, low-carbon footprint premises in a prime location, close to major workplaces with excellent connections to Umeå city center.

Lively ground floors and modern offices

The commercial areas and business districts have been part of the planning of the area from early on. When shops, restaurants, and other businesses are mixed with residences, it creates a vibrant meeting place for far more than just the residents. 

Tomtebo strand will offer modern spaces for commercial services, offices, research, and education, among others. The commercial areas are planned to be 70,000 square meters in size.

Here, there will be opportunities for both those looking for something smaller and something quite large. The majority of these businesses will be located in a strategically visible location along E4–Kolbäcksvägen

A place for associations
