About Us
The Thoj Group Experience
Welcome to Thoj Group, where we don't just build structures; we construct opportunities, nurture growth, and transform visions into reality. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to create a real estate development and business consulting firm that embodies the essence of community and diversity.
With a footprint that spans all 50 states and extends beyond borders, Thoj Group is more than a company – it's a dynamic force dedicated to making a lasting impact. Our team of experts brings together over 100 years of collective experience, each member contributing their unique expertise in community engagement, small business development, and pioneering research and development.
Headquartered in strategic locations – Seattle, WA, Saint Paul, MN, and Norfolk, VA – our presence is carefully orchestrated to reach and resonate with diverse communities on a profound level. We firmly believe that our success lies in the deep connections we forge, understanding that every community is a mosaic of stories, cultures, and aspirations.
What truly sets us apart is our team – a tapestry woven with threads of diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Our staff doesn't just reflect the world we live in; they enrich it. By embracing and celebrating the lived and work experiences of our team members, we elevate our cultural competency and elevate the service we offer.
We take pride in our ability to engage meaningfully with a wide spectrum of communities, including African, Asian, Indigenous, Latinx, and Women. It's this very diversity that fuels our drive for innovation and sets the stage for boundless creativity. We firmly believe that in order to shape the future of real estate development and business consulting, we must mirror the communities we serve.
At Thoj Group, we're not just building structures; we're building bridges between dreams and reality. We invite you to join us on this transformative journey, where community empowerment and unwavering dedication converge to create a better tomorrow.
