"We have to assume the highest level of responsibility. You cannot delegate, then worry about those things and see that they are carried out. We have to use good materials, work with good contractors, and have a good project. You have to be present".

PATRICIO PÉREZ MORGAN
DIRECTOR AND FOUNDER

"It was important to reject projects that we felt we would be unable to implement properly. We preferred to say no. It is important to know when to say 'no'. This implies responsibility because we know we will be unable to do things correctly".

FÉLIX BOIX IRISARRI
DIRECTOR AND FOUNDER

"The founders conveyed the importance of the concept of ‘effort’ as a value. They are austere, they do not squander because it cost them a lot to achieve this. We view their sacrifice as an example".

CANDELA BOIX
ASSISTANT TO THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT

"Every day new challenges arise and decisions have to be made. From the founders we learnt that if things are done properly, they pay off".

DAMIÁN BOIX
CONSTRUCTION AND COMMERCIAL MANAGER

"Both of the founders are very hard workers, they are true examples. I admire their personality, their professionalism, values, transparency, and their correct manners. Norte has become what it is, thanks to how conservative they were at the time and the low-key attitude they have always had".

FELIPE BOIX
CONSTRUCTION AND LOGISTICS MANAGER

"From the founders we learnt the values they passed on to us. The value of integrity and honesty come naturally to them; they are not theoretical about these values but express them through their actions".

NICOLÁS BOIX
ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGER

"Norte would not be what it is without the people who work for us. The company stands out for doing things properly, and if we make a mistake, we figure out a way to solve it. This is also something we convey: if we have to do things five times until they finally turn out as they should, then we will do so".

SANTIAGO PÉREZ
TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT MANAGER

"Architects Boix and Pérez Morgan were my classmates at the School of Architecture in the 1970s."

Architect Carlos Ott

"The most remarkable thing about Norte is that it is a family-owned business; one can speak with the owners and everything is more direct, less bureaucratic"

Architect Hernán Bernabó, of Estudio MRA + A

"One feels reassured when working with Norte because, compared to other companies, fewer errors occur, and if so, they are corrected"

Architect Iván Arcos, of Estudio Cinco Arquitectos

"The first project we did with Norte was in Montevideo in 2009 and what caught our attention most was their organization and cleanliness at the construction site."

Architect José María Alonso and Josu Rekakoetxea, real estate developers

Bahía Vik

"Worth highlighting are Norte’s assets: their construction fleet makes you realise that this is a company capable of dealing with any type of construction project, regardless of the deadline or size"

Architect Marcelo Daglio
