What ricci does

Ricci is a Russian real estate consulting, brokerage, and investment firm founded in 2005 and headquartered in Moscow, operating as OOO «Эс Эй Риччи» (S A Ricci LLC). The company serves corporate and private clients across six real estate verticals — office, warehouse/industrial, residential, investment and land assets, international, and resort — with a stated focus on the Moscow market and growing presence in 15+ international jurisdictions. Ricci claims to be the undisputed leader in Moscow office real estate, participating in "every third" office deal in Moscow, with cumulative track record of 5+ million m2 of commercial real estate transacted, 1,400+ deals, and 10,000+ apartments sold.

The firm's core technology stack is a real estate market analytics platform served by an in-house Analytical Center that produces quarterly and annual reports across office, warehouse, residential, investment, and Light Industrial segments, alongside a proprietary off-market land plot database. Service delivery is structured around an integrated ecosystem model ("Ricci 360") with four specialized platforms: a Consulting Platform, the Analytical Center, the Ricci Capital Investment Fund (portfolio exceeding 5 billion rubles within three years), and a Valuation Department operating under Russian Federal Standards and IVS/RICS international standards.

Revenue is generated through a mix of transaction-based brokerage commissions, professional services fees for consulting and valuation, and managed services from the Ricci Capital investment fund. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is an enterprise field sales model with dedicated department heads per segment, supported by an inside sales team, marketing content (newsletter, Telegram, market reports), and recent integration with third-party AI chat platforms for content distribution. Key enterprise clients include T-Bank, Sminex, GKS Mangazeya, GKS GALS-Development, NTK Zhukovsky, Lamoda, and Hyundai Glovis Russia. Ricci is privately held with no disclosed external funding rounds.
