In the early 80s Wilky launched a specialist bathroom
merchant business, having taken over an established Guildford retailer.
This is now the region's largest bathroom showroom, with over 100
displays.
The need to create this facility set the Group on the path to becoming
a developer in its own right. Today, our development record spans
35 years and some 75 projects, ranging in value from £2m -
£200m.
The Group retained some of the properties it developed
as investments. This portfolio now also includes several listed buildings |
|
that we operate as business centres, providing offices on flexible
terms for small businesses.
In 2004, the Group decided to focus on its property interests. A management buy out of its steel stockholding division was followed in 2007 by another MBO of Wilky Foundations Systems Ltd, now re-named Neil Foundations Ltd. Later in 2007 the contract sales business of Wilky Bathrooms was sold to another privately-owned group. |
