Mexican press reports on Crystal Lagoons’ new business: public access lagoons

15 May, 2017 / News

Miami will soon be the home of the world’s first crystal-clear lagoon open to the public made with Crystal Lagoons’ technology. With this goal in mind, the multinational innovation company has entered a partnership deal with Jungle Island (former Parrot jungle), one of Florida main theme parks, located in the center of Miami, where the company will build its first project under this new focus and commercial model.

Currently, Jungle Island receives about 300,000 visits a year, but with the new addition of Crystal Lagoons’ amenity –that will spread over 1 hectare- it will attract over one million people annually. That is to say, it is expected visits to the animal-themed park will triple, due to higher numbers of users looking for enjoining beach lifestyle in a safe and controlled environment”, said Jean Pierre Juanchich Crystal Lagoons’ Regional Director for Mexico.

“Crystal Lagoons will get revenue from a percentage of ticket sales. This will set a new business model for the company. Currently, the firm gets a percentage of real estate project sales as revenue. The company provides projects of great added value and it manages to retain part of it for itself. From now on, this will be replicated at either private or public leisure centers”, the executive said.

The multinational innovation company projects that in three years time the number of crystal-clear lagoons open to the public will equate the 600 projects the company currently has on the real estate sector – at different development and negotiation stages – 43% of those have materialized in the last 12 months thanks to the expansion of Crystal Lagoons’ offices worldwide.

Crystal Lagoons’ new division already has 25 projects in different development and negotiation stages worldwide in countries such as Thailand, Australia, the U.S., Turkey, Argentina, and Chile.

Crystal Lagoons is an international innovation company, founded by scientist Fernando Fischmann, which has developed a patent-protected technology that allows the construction and maintenance of unlimited-size crystal clear lagoons at very low costs.
