Grosvenor Group

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Grosvenor Group is a property company which is privately owned by the Duke of Westminster, who is the third wealthiest man in the United Kingdom after Lakshmi Mittal and Roman Abramovich.

The group has built on the Grosvenor family's traditional holdings in London (part of Mayfair and much of Belgravia; Pimlico was also developed by the family, but has been sold) and its agricultural estates in Cheshire and Scotland. It is now a major international property investment and development company with interests in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Japan and several European countries. In 2003, nearly 40% of the group's net rental income was derived from the United States. Grosvenor is lead developer of The Paradise Project in Liverpool.
