Company history[]

Founded by Gordon Benoy as a small architectural company in rural Nottinghamshire, the company developed and grew until 1987 when, after a merger, 'Gordon Benoy & Partners' became 'Fitch Benoy'. During the early 1990s the deep recession at that time created difficulties for many in the property and construction industry. Consequently, in 1992 a management buyout resulted in the current company name Benoy.

The company was headed by its chairman, Graham Cartledge CBE, who has been with the company since 1974 but now being run and by Tom Cartledge who is taking to company in a "different" direction.

The company has expanded from the UK. In 2002 it opened its first overseas office in Hong Kong which has been quickly followed by offices in Shanghai & Singapore.

The company now employs over 400 staff across 5 locations.
