Founded in 1978, The Koffler Group is a third-generation family office based in Providence, Rhode Island, stemming from the legacy of American Tourister Luggage Company, established by Sol Koffler in 1932. Known for revolutionizing the luggage industry, Koffler laid the groundwork for a family business focused on real estate development and investment. Today, The Koffler Group has made a significant mark in the Northeastern US commercial and multifamily residential real estate markets, distinguished by its commitment to quality and sustainability.
Under the leadership of Richard J. Bornstein, Sol Koffler's son-in-law, The Koffler Group expanded its influence throughout New England, solidifying its reputation as a leader in the real estate industry. The company continues to thrive, driven by a commitment to the community and a philanthropic spirit exhibited through the Koffler-Bornstein Family Foundation. This foundation has made substantial contributions to many educational and health institutions, maintaining a strong focus on giving back to the community.
The Koffler Group's success is also reflected in its recognition within the investment industry, having been awarded the Family Office of the Year by Institutional Investor in 2010. Today, The Koffler Group not only continues its tradition of excellence in real estate but also actively engages in numerous philanthropic endeavors, reflecting the Koffler family's deep-seated values of community support and social responsibility.
