About Quai Zurich
The Quai Zurich project is the redevelopment of our global headquarters at Mythenquai, Zurich, which we have proudly called home for over 115 years. We have a long, rich history here, built on a great partnership with the city of Zurich. When finished, the development will be an important addition to this unique location and a landmark for the neighborhood.
Bringing together heritage properties full of tradition and state of the art construction, the project reflects the evolving nature of our company.
Our mission is to provide Zurich employees, customers and visitors with a modern and inspiring environment. At the same time, we are delighted that our LEED certified development supports the city’s 2000-Watt Society vision for an environmentally sustainable future.
