[5] In 2006, PIK acquired the Stroyinvestregion company and began to expand its real estate development activities across Russia, with projects in cities such as Kaliningrad, Yaroslavl, Kaluga, Obninsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Taganrog, Novorossiysk, Perm and Omsk.
Despite this, however, in April 2009, PIK's founders, Kirill Pisarev and Yuri Zhukov, had to relinquish control over the company: they ceded a 25% shareholding to Suleyman Kerimov (Nafta-Moscow OOO) in exchange for a debt restructuring.
[11] In late 2013, strategic investors Aleksandr Leonidovich Mamut and Sergey Eduardovich Gordeev acquired a shareholding in PIK from subsidiaries of the Suleyman Kerimov Foundation.
[13] In the summer of 2017, Sergey Gordeev closed a deal to buy out the shareholdings of companies belonging to Aleksandr Mamut (16%) and Mikail Shishkhanov (9.8%) at a price of 280 rubles per one ordinary share.
[16] In October 2023, Gordeev transferred 20% of the shares of the Central Trust Company, leaving himself 32.49%, and ceased to be the controlling shareholder.
In 2018, the company is working on more than 40 integrated real estate development projects in the Moscow metropolitan area, most of them in the affordable housing sector.
At the same time, the company's portfolio also features a number of business-class projects: Vavilova 4, Vander Park and Mosfilmovskaya.
PIK has its own design bureau and modern manufacturing facilities, enabling it to adapt flexibly and rapidly to the needs of the market.
In 2015, the company brought some fundamentally new industrial and monolithic housebuilding products to the market, completely transforming its approach to shaping the internal living environment in new developments.
Taken together, these facilities have an annual capacity of 1.5 mln m2 of prefabricated reinforced concrete housing units and 500,000 m2 of SEM (Superefficient Monolith) façade structures, fully meeting PIK's requirements for these items.
Most of these houses do not have balconies, though they do feature storage rooms for the residents and the facades are fitted with cages for external air conditioning units.
PIK works with both European and Russian design, architectural and engineering partners including de Architekten Cie., Gillespies, Steer Davies Gleave, John McAslan+Partners, Urbica and RuGBSC, Aukett Swanke, Buromoscow.
Together with AFA landscape bureau, PIK created Russia's first PlayHub children's playground in the grounds of the Buninskiye Luga residential district.
[20] In 2019, Samokat attracted a $10 million investment from Sergey Gordeev's PIK Group of Companies (57th place in the 2017 list of Russia's wealthiest businessmen).
[28] Since 2005, PIK has been involved in addressing the problems of individual investors defrauded by dishonest construction firms such as Stroymetresurs ZAO, Kompaniya Stroyindustriya OOO and KT Sotsialnaya Initsiativa, which failed to meet their obligations to buyers.
The company is also completing construction of the Western Gateway to the Capital residential complex in the town of Odintsovo, Moscow Region.
[29] The company has a strong focus on building social infrastructure such as schools, kindergartens and clinics, bringing in prominent experts to work on these projects.
Thus, PIK engaged the Dominique Colon & Associates bureau to design a school and kindergarten for the Green Park residential complex.
The company hands over all social facilities for children fully kitted out with furniture, equipment, toys and everything required for learning, development, comfortable and informative leisure.
