What Cemi does

Cemi AB is a Stockholm-based property management company founded in 1999, headquartered in Solna, Sweden, that delivers bundled total property management (totalförvaltning) to housing cooperatives (BRFs), private and public property owners, and individual homeowners in the Stockholm metropolitan area. Its service portfolio spans four core lines: Fastighetsförvaltning (technical management, economic administration, property caretaking, and maintenance planning), Bygg & hantverk (construction and renovation of apartments, villas, kitchens, bathrooms, and balconies plus project management), Utemiljö (garden maintenance, landscaping, cleaning, and winter maintenance), and Badvattenteknik (supervision and water purification for roughly 70 bathing and recreational facilities). Supporting these is Lägenhetsförteckning, a digital apartment register service for housing cooperatives, and the PHM Digital customer portal, which provides booking systems, digital invoicing, fault reporting, case management, digital signing, and resident communication. Cemi is ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental) certified by Svensk Certifiering Norden AB, and employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people.

Cemi generates revenue through a mix of recurring subscription-style property management contracts and project-based construction and renovation work, with pricing determined per quote rather than published publicly. Its go-to-market is direct-to-customer via its website quote forms, phone and email sales, the PHM Digital portal, and industry events such as Styrelsemässan 2026. Since 2020, Cemi has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of PHM Group Oy, a Finnish-originated Nordic property services conglomerate, giving it access to group-level procurement, shared services, and Nordic network while maintaining its local Stockholm brand and customer-facing operations. Geographic focus is concentrated in the Stockholm region (Solna, Sundbyberg, Nacka, Täby, Lidingö, Bromma, and surrounding areas), and the company does not claim a global footprint. Revenue figures are not disclosed in any available source.
