Overview
Sewell Group builds, develops and manages property for organizations, while its retail arm runs fuel stations and convenience stores in Hull and East Yorkshire. Its Estates businesses bring together construction, property investment, consultancy and facilities management, so customers can commission work from an initial strategy through to a completed building and ongoing maintenance. Sewell Advisory develops estates plans and business cases, then manages projects and operational property; Sewell on the go sells fuel, groceries and food to motorists and local shoppers. The group traces its roots to a Hull building business founded in 1876 and is headquartered in Hull, East Yorkshire.
