Christie & Co celebrates 90(th) anniversary
Christie Group plc (CTG.L) is pleased to report that its agency and advisory
business, Christie & Co, today achieves the significant milestone of 90
years of unparalleled expertise in advising, valuing, and selling businesses
across its specialist sectors.
Since its formation in 1935, Christie & Co has been at the forefront of
the market, providing expert advice and delivering exceptional results for its
clients. The business opened its first office on Baker Street in London, and
have since expanded their services internationally, becoming market leaders in
its chosen specialist sectors.
The Christie & Co team has expanded substantially, bringing together a
talented group of professionals across 22 offices in the UK and Europe, who
share a passion for achieving the best results.
The first regional office opened in Exeter in 1952, and over the decades the
Christie & Co team have supported clients through some of their most
important decisions. From handling the sale of the Waterside Inn to the Roux
brothers in 1972, to the 2006 sale of Hilton Metropole hotels, a £417 million
deal, Christie & Co have provided trusted advice on landmark transactions
and become the partner of choice for generations of business owners.
Over the years, Christie & Co have entered new sectors, expanding from
their roots in hotels, pubs, retail and care to the childcare and medical
sectors, quickly becoming the most active agent in these markets. More
recently, the business has taken important steps to grow its Capital Markets
team to increase its activity within this area.
Christie & Co have also developed a strong presence across Europe, opening
its first international office in Paris in 1998 followed by Frankfurt,
Barcelona and Vienna. Today, it operates from 11 offices across France, Spain,
Germany and Austria. Christie & Co entered the care market in Germany in
2023, followed by France in 2024, and further expansion of its activities
across Europe remains a strategic focus for the years ahead.
Darren Bond, Global Managing Director at Christie & Co, reflects, "Our
90th anniversary is a celebration of the people who have shaped our business
and those who continue to drive it forward. Christie & Co's success is
built on a tradition of excellence, innovation, and a relentless focus on
delivering for our clients. We look forward to seeing this continue into the
years ahead."
Dan Prickett, Chief Executive of Christie Group plc and Christie & Co
Chairman, comments, "90 years after its creation, Christie & Co remains at
the heart of Christie Group and its goal of helping all our clients unlock the
potential that lies within their own business dreams and ambitions. As we look
forwards to being part of thousands more success stories in the future, we
know that only comes from continuing to connect the passion, skill, knowledge
and expertise of our own people with the commitment, vision and energy of our
clients."
