Director, Justice Built Communities
Robert Sanders founded Sanders Development Group (SDG) in 2019 based on a strong foundation in commercial development and financial services—industries that, when combined, have a direct impact on expanding access to economic opportunity and fostering healthy and vibrant neighborhoods. SDG focuses on commercial, mixed-use, and large-scale residential real estate and investment and development projects.
SDG’s mission is “Build With Stronger Clay,” which comes from Robert’s belief that through strategic collaboration, projects and expectations can far exceed anything that is attempted individually.
Sanders Development Group completed a $4 million relocation of Triversity Construction’s Headquarters in the community of Walnut Hills in Cincinnati, Ohio. The project involved completely rehabilitating a vacant blighted industrial building and bringing jobs to the urban core.
SDG is a consultant to several community development corporations and private clients throughout Cincinnati and Minneapolis and is responsible for redevelopment throughout several historically disinvested communities. SDG is also currently a development partner on the proposed $300 million mixed-use development north of FC Cincinnati’s stadium in the West End community of Cincinnati.
