🤷🏻‍♀️ Why it matters

In the construction and property industry, common problems are inefficiency, high costs and projects taking longer to complete than expected.

• Another issue? Construction requires a lot of energy-intensive equipment, and there's a lack of awareness and focus on minimizing the negative environmental impact.

‍

👉🏼 The solution

Build faster, cheaper and more sustainably with Kabina. They have prefabricated and modular materials, mainly wood, which you can use for construction.

• The wood is sourced from sustainable sources.
• They're multi-purpose and can be easily adjusted and reconstructed depending on your needs.

🏗 Beyond just construction

They're also related to other offerings that fit the lifestyle and needs of their customers. Kabina House, Kabina Space, Kabina Suite, and more! (Fellow WeCrashed fans, we know what you're thinking. Yes, this reminds us of WeWork, WeGrow, etc. too!)

• Kabina Market: outdoor retail areas located in prime locations with at least 50% outdoor area to connect people with open brands/retail.
• Kabina Life: a simple SaaS solution that digitizes property and real estate management, covering visitor management and booking to payment tracking.

💰 What's with the $$$?
