To mark the 30th
anniversary of Philip Gwyn’s acquisition of Christie + Co in
1974, which laid the foundation for Christie Group, The Business of
Adding Value, a book written by Nigel Watson, was published
charting the history of the Group companies.
The book captures the past one hundred and fifty years since the birth of the company, through its various stages of growth and development. It is a permanent record of Christie Group’s achievements and is written in appreciation of all our clients and all those who have worked for the Group, without whose dedication and commitment our ‘people business’ would not be the success it is today. This history celebrates and spans a period of great change – from relatively humble beginnings to what is now an international business; a market-leader in professional business services, software solutions and stock and inventory control.
Today, Christie Group operates under three divisions - "Professional Business Services", "Software Solutions" and "Stock & Inventory Services". It has offices in ten countries (Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Spain and the UK) and does business in around 50 countries worldwide. It employs over 1,000 full-time employees.
