The Firmus History
The Polish seafront, long Europe's hidden gem, boasts pristine sandy beaches and an expansive coastal dune network, drawing countless holidaymakers. Mielno, a charming seaside town, attracts nearly 150,000 summer visitors, generating over 1 million overnight stays yearly. Despite this popularity, the area remains largely underserviced and underdeveloped.
Poland's rapid economic ascent in the last 20 years, propelling it to one of the EU's largest economies, has elevated average earnings and living standards. Increased spending has surged demand for second homes, particularly beach-front properties.
In 2000, Firmus Group strategically invested in prime beach-front properties, envisioning the development of premier homes in the most coveted Polish coastal locations. Firmus has been rooted in the region since 2000, continually expanding and investing in additional land.

My first encounter with the breathtaking nature of the Polish coast left a lasting impression. Despite frequent business trips to Polish cities, I had only briefly visited Sopot and Gdansk.
It wasn't until a decade later that I explored Mielno and the beaches on Mierzeja, a hidden treasure that overwhelmed me.
Some investments are driven solely by economic logic, while others allow emotions to influence decisions. For us, it was clearly the latter – we fell in love with the nature. We understood the charm of beachfront and coastal plots, having observed their premium prices in Norway, Sweden, and other Nordic countries. Despite Poland's coastline being just a centimeter per inhabitant, we recognized the appeal of spending time at the coast in one's homeland, surrounded by familiar culture and language.
Initially invested in by Stein Chr. Knutsen and his colleague Rob Mathias, we eagerly joined them in 2003. Over the past two decades, we've acquired plots, developed plans, and prepared for the area's development to make it more accessible to others.
We're fully aware of the value of the maritime culture and delicate nature of the area, and we've undertaken projects since 2000 that we're proud of. However, our ambitions for the area's future are even more exciting. Collaborating with local authorities, top property developers, partners, and investors, we aim to realize our plans in the years to come.
The wait has been long, but the next chapter in our story will soon begin, and we are truly looking forward to it. We welcome those who will join us in these endeavors.
Warm Regards,
Tormod Stene-Johansen
