Shanghai Greenspace Landscaping Ltd was setup in 2002 in Shanghai
by Ms Qing Chang. Her idea was simple, to provide lush and thriving greenspaces,
hence the name. We started off with two retail shops in Shanghai and a few people
providing plants to private clients. From this we grew the business to provide indoor plants and plant maintenance
to corporate buildings and offices. In 2006 we setup our first greenhouse and expanded
the business to include private garden landscaping and today spend most of our time
on corporate and governmental developments but still love doing the occasional
private garden.
Over the years we have had our ups and downs,
hard and easy time but our core values remain the same:
·
Strong team work from a mixture of people from different backgrounds
·
Experimentation
·
Honesty
·
Knowledge and thought
·
Lack of pretension and directness
·
Planning
·
Worrying
·
Attention to detail
·
Long term results
This has resulted in us developing some very
strong best practices built around our hands on experience in the design / horticulture
/ build / maintenance field. This leads us to put in the extra effort and energy
to make sure our landscapes have longevity and improve with time.
Today we have grown into a company of over a
hundred people from these different landscaping disciplines. A lot of our strength
comes from our integrated disciplinary approach and strong team work. We don't just
treat team work from the internal perspective but also work extremely closely with
architects, landscape designers, specialized consultants, engineers, project managers,
main contractors and of course the client.
Internally we have a design and landscape engineering
team, horticultural team, build and plant team, organic maintenance team, project
management and backend staff to support us and our projects. As well as this we
work very closely with our sister companies, Mirror Imaging Ltd and Water Positive
Ltd as well as various LDI’s, local specialized engineering firms as well as being
distributors for leading multinational landscaping manufactures and suppliers.
Time and resource permitting we also sponsor
various local NGOs and provide FOC work to charity where we can.
