Nhood Wins 5 Awards at the 2025 Solal Awards, Including the “Best of the Best” Trophy
Nhood received major recognition at the 2025 SOLAL Awards ceremony, held yesterday evening in Poland, taking home five prestigious awards. The Alegro shopping centers, managed by Nhood in Portugal, earned four of these distinctions, while the Zenia Boulevard shopping center, located in Spain and also managed by Nhood, secured the fifth award.
The highlight of the night was Alegro Setúbal, which won the Gold Award in the Customer Services category with the project “Silent Hour.” This pioneering initiative in Portugal, implemented in collaboration with APPDA – the Portuguese Association for Developmental Disorders and Autism, creates an inclusive environment for people with autism spectrum disorders and other neurodivergent conditions. In addition to this recognition, “Silent Hour” also received the ceremony’s top honor: the “Best of the Best Winner 2025” trophy, awarded to the most voted project across all categories.
Alegro Alfragide received the Bronze Award in the Placemaking category for the Christmas show “Aladdin on Ice,” developed in partnership with AM Experience. The production combined high-quality entertainment with a strong connection to the local community.
Alegro Sintra also earned a Bronze Award in the Corporate Social Responsibility category for the project “Christmas in Pairs,” a solidarity initiative that brought holiday magic to the Amadora Sintra Hospital Center.
Internationally, Zenia Boulevard, in Orihuela Costa, Spain, was awarded the Bronze Award in the Grand Refurbishment category, in recognition of its comprehensive transformation into a more human, sustainable, and community-connected space.
“This is a historic achievement, not only for the assets managed by Nhood but for the entire sector in Portugal. This international recognition confirms that our strategic approach translates into meaningful experiences, with real impact on communities and tangible results for the assets. It is a great source of pride to see the talent and dedication of our teams reflected in projects that generate value — and that are recognized by our peers.” — Maura Teixeira, Marketing & Innovation Director Iberia at Nhood.
