SD 2030

For 50 years globally, we have adopted, advocated and adhered to a philosophy of responsible development. We are committed to operating in an environmentally, socially and economically responsible manner across all aspects of our business.

We introduced our SD vision in 2016 to clearly articulate our direction: To be the leading sustainable development performer in our industry globally by 2030. In the same year, we formulated our SD 2030 Strategy to implement our SD vision. This strategy helps us build our SD capability and ensures that SD considerations are part of all of our operations and business decisions.

SD 2030 Framework

SD 2030 Framework

Our SD 2030 Strategy is built on five strategic pillars that aim to make Swire Properties the global sustainable leader in the industry by 2030:

Places
People
Partners
Performance (Environment)
Performance (Economic)

Our SD 2030 Strategy is premised on a creative mindset of innovation and experimentation, promoted through communication and engagement.

Places are central to the achievement of our SD 2030 Strategy. Through effective placemaking and long-term placekeeping, we aim to continue to transform the places in which we invest as to create value, whilst retaining their character, supporting communities and enhancing people’s lives.

The island of Brickell Key and Brickell City Centre are examples of how Swire Properties develops, on a large but human scale, investing our capital in creating impactful spaces as an advocate of urban lifestyle for residents, workers, and tourists who prefer walkability and an active lifestyle.

Metromover

As placemakers, it’s our job to make sure Miami keeps moving forward. One of the ways we do that is by investing in more sustainable ways to move about the city, such as having a Metromover station integrated into Brickell City Centre in partnership with Go Miami Dade in 2014-1025.

The long-term nature of our SD 2030 Strategy means that the relationships we forge with our partners are crucial to the strategy’s success now and in the future.

We will continue to strengthen engagement with our suppliers, tenants, customers, residents, government bodies, non-governmental organizations NGOs and joint venture partners on sustainable development issues.

The Underline

An outstanding example of our commitment to places and partners is visible in our involvement to The Underline, the land below Miami’s Metrorail that has been transformed into a 10-mile linear park and urban trail. To date, Swire has committed a total of $1.1 million to the organization.

We believe that the contributions of our employees are critical to the implementation of our SD 2030 Strategy and to our overall success. As such, we aim to create an environment where our employees will be healthier, happier and more productive. We also seek to invest in our employees and aim to provide them with rewarding career paths to develop a diverse, industry-leading team.

Community Ambassador Program

Swire Properties Community Ambassador Program has brought positive change to local communities through a multitude of initiatives and activities for 20 years globally, logging over 95,000 volunteer hours. Our vision – “Together, we build communities”.

We take great care to develop high-quality developments while continually seeking to improve our environmental performance.

A prime example of Swire’s commitment to sustainable design is Brickell City Centre’s Climate Ribbon, a $30 million glass and steel trellis that serves as the retail center’s sustainable environmental management system and connects all three city blocks of the project. This architectural and environmentally-friendly art piece allows for conversation of 3 million galons of water per year.
