Investors Home
The Company was founded in December 2000 by pub entrepreneurs David Bruce and Clive Watson who have over fifty years combined experience
of operating pub companies in London.
Their vision was to start a new venture which would acquire and operate predominantly freehold, managed pubs in London.
The free-of-tie pubs would be non-branded and un-themed and each would serve its local community. As genuine free houses the pubs would be able
to offer customers a wide range of products served by friendly and well-trained staff.
Fundraising under the Enterprise Investment Scheme began in February 2001 and the Company first started trading in October 2001.
By April 2003 the Company had raised £15.4m. from 576 shareholders and had purchased ten free-of-tie pubs in London.
Since then the Company has continued to expand and it now owns the largest independent estate of predominantly freehold, free-of-tie, managed pubs in London.
