Biography

Juan Bremer is a successful investor and entrepreneur, with more than two decades of experience in the development and management of high-end residential and hotel properties in Mexico and Europe.

As Founding Partner, Juan was the driving force behind the creation of RLD Development, which later became BK Partners, an asset management company that created investment vehicles targeting a variety of industries. He contributed his own capital to this company and attracted institutional investors such as Goldman Sachs and TPG-Axon.

Juan is a Founding Partner and was a member of the Executive Committee and Board of Directors, as well as a deputy CEO of RLH Properties. RLH encompassed emblematic properties such as One&Only Mandarina Resort, Four Seasons Hotel in Mexico City, Mayakoba Resort and the Villa Magna Hotel in Madrid. RLH is listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange and is the largest luxury hotel group in Mexico.

After the Four Seasons Hotel was acquired, Juan led the renovation project. As a result of the Four Seasons' redesign, several awards were received.

He was a key player in the development of Mandarina, where $125 million worth of residences were sold at an average price of US$6.1 million, significantly above the expectations before the hotel O&O Mandarina opened. During its construction, the project created more than 1,600 jobs with an initial investment of about $150 million.

Juan is also one of the founding partners of Xala, a 1,200-hectare sustainable development project located on Mexico’s Pacific coast, south of Puerto Vallarta. Xala's residential lot sales have been a great success and exceeded the developer’s expectations through attracting wealthy HNWI from Silicon Valley.

Juan obtained a degree in Marketing and Communication from the Westdeutsche Akademie für Kommunikation in Cologne, Germany.
