The Charles Gee Group of Companies is very pleased to announce that, owing to continued growth, expansion and development across different sectors of our business, a new Group structure is being created to better reflect the Group's portfolio of business and to give a clearer understanding of the services offered throughout the Group. This will bring greater efficiencies, accountability and transparency for directors, staff, shareholders, suppliers and customers alike.

Under our new structure, Charles Gee Group Ltd. will eventually own, control and manage all areas of Group business. All group companies will operate as subsidiaries of the new company with overall ownership remaining with the present owners and shareholders. The Group will not only remain just as strong and as financially secure as before, but will benefit from the far greater transparency of the new corporate arrangements, giving us a more appropriate structure to build on Charles Gee & Company's solid trading, sound investments and good business practice of the last 122 years.

A new website is coming soon but in the short term, follow the link to download our new structure in pdf format. Due to the ongoing restructuring, some parts of this website may not be as up to date as we would like. Feel free to contact us if you are in any doubt.

In January 2010 the Charles Gee Group opened its latest office in Bristol, operating as Charles Gee Bristol Ltd.

This strategic expansion to the group portfolio enhances its ability to offer end to end supply chain solutions to its aerospace, defence and port customers in the Bristol and surrounding region.

When Mr. Gee founded his company in 1887, it is clear from his journals that his vision was to create a business which would carry his name and his ideals into an indefinite future.

As his successors, the Partners, Directors, Managers and staff of what is now the Charles Gee Group, are proud to think that, 120 years on, his vision continues to be fulfilled. Our growth has been steady and measured.

The group marries the ethics of that time, more than a century ago, with modern, free thinking, which keeps it at the forefront of its range of operations. It also innovates now as it always has. Its people are its greatest strength and they work tirelessly to achieve meaningful, symbiotic relationships with the group’s customers.

We look forward bringing innovation, experience and knowledge to many more years of service excellence.
