Pettifer Estates is a key part of the Pettifer Group which was established in 1955. The company based in Warwickshire, with regional offices in London and Glasgow, operates across the UK undertaking a wide range of development activities including retail, commercial and residential. Pettifer Estates specialises in the development of retail warehousing and edge of town schemes, and the promotion and development of major residential and mixed-use projects. The company has specialist expertise in Town and Country Planning and is highly active in bringing forward sites from its extensive land bank and option reserves. The company's current development pipeline includes over 750,000 sq ft of retail and leisure, 400,000 sq ft of offices and over 2,000 plots for housing, equating to an end value in excess of £500 million. As well as conventional sale and letting activities, the company also specialises in joint ventures with land and property owners (acting either as 'lead developer' or funding partner), and through its sister companies is able to provide a co-ordinated design and build service, including the provision of finance. The Pettifer Group, still in private ownership, is a major force in property development, construction, consultancy and technology, employing 350 staff and operating throughout the UK from offices in London (Mayfair and Clerkenwell), Solihull, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds.
