Aspirations for 2026 and beyond revolve strongly around Domis’ mentality of being a family business.“ It’ s important for us to maintain that relationship between our clients, supply chain and workforce with the senior management team,” Steve discloses.“ We don’ t necessarily want to be turning over £ 1 billion a year – our aim is to complete about eight to ten projects a year, continuing our business in and around the £ 300 million mark while ensuring they’ re the right projects.”
“ Pertaining to the number of projects that we focus on at a time, we’ re going to concentrate on quality over quantity over the next five to ten years,” Joe contributes.“ Looking at our current projects, Manchester is described as a‘ city of firsts – we’ ve got the first branded residence with Saint Michaels, the North’ s tallest tower, the highest hotel rooms in Western Europe in Nobu Manchester and plenty more in the pipeline that are unique, large-scale, high-value projects.”
“ Being part of a group with Salboy also separates us slightly from others in the industry,” Steve concludes.“ We’ re happy to have conversations with selected clients around development partnerships, working alongside them in some of our past schemes and some going forward. By becoming that development partner with them, it’ s helped to unlock schemes that may not have come to fruition without that financial contribution- it means we’ ve all got skin in the game when it comes to the success of that development, which is a fantastic outcome for us and our clients.” ■
