It was in the 1980s that the Katasa Group took shape. The name of the company, chosen by its founder, Sam Chowieri, is made up of the first two letters of his daughters who, today, are Katasa Group’s managers: KAtherine, TAnya and SAmantha!

From an early age, the three sisters were actively involved in the family business, whether it was accompanying their father on his visits to the Résidence de l’Île, sharing the traditional Christmas dinner with the residents, serving at the tables, or playing the role of messengers. In the summer, they spent a lot of time at the residence: nothing better to learn the ropes of the trade!

In 2009, they joined the family business as managers, thereby strengthening Katasa’s expertise. Katherine is responsible for planning, marketing, and finance, Tanya oversees new acquisitions, new projects, and commissioning of new buildings and renovations, and Samantha manages retirement residences and all real estate properties.

“We treat our tenants, our residents, and staff like family members by creating a pleasant environment where everyone feels good. Passion helps to create a superior customer experience, to surpass oneself, to get excited about work, and to drive innovation,” explains Tanya Chowieri.

a daring bet for Sam Chowieri

A daring bet for Sam Chowieri of the Katasa Group!

a daring bet for Sam ChowieriBusinessman Sam Chowieri was already a seasoned professional in residential real estate development when he decided, more than 30 years ago, to venture into the construction of retirement residences under the Katasa Group.

A daring bet at the time! But he saw a need for this type of property and embarked on one of his boldest projects by purchasing a disused church in downtown Hull to convert it into a comfortable and warm retirement residence.

The Résidence de l’Île thus became the flagship of the Katasa Group. A success that has enabled the Group to experience phenomenal growth, particularly with the acquisition and development of new residences for retirees across Quebec and even Ontario.

Since 2014, Katasa focuses its business on the development and management of retirement complexes. Their mission is to develop and manage commercial and residential rental buildings focused on the needs and well-being of their tenants, as well as multi-service residences for pensioners who feel at home, skillfully combining know-how, attention to detail, comfort, and a personalized approach.

Today, Katasa includes five commercial rental buildings, two residential rental buildings, a mobile home rental park (Riviera), and seven private retirement complexes. Several expansion projects are also under consideration. A beautiful success signed by Sam Chowieri and the Katasa Group!
