In 2025, Terao set up an operations team in the Middle East, marking a significant step in our long-standing commitment to global sustainability. This marks the official local presence, when our journey in this region began two years ago. Through initial business trips and successful project collaborations, we have actively contributed to the landscape, carrying out projects such as energy and carbon audits for existing buildings in the manufacturing and hospitality sectors, as well as green building certifications for new construction in the luxury retail sector. These early successes and continued engagement have highlighted the growing demand and urgent need for a local team to support businesses in achieving their sustainability goals.

This strategic presence, combined with our operations team in the region, allows us to directly contribute to the region’s ambitious energy transition goals and minimize the impact of our client’s building assets. We are committed to boosting strong local partnerships and enabling impactful, sustainable projects.
