The success of Jardine Matheson has been due in no small part to its unique character, which to this day clearly reflects many of the personal traits of the founders. Not only did the two founding Scotsmen, one highlander and one lowlander, instil an enterprising spirit into their newly created trading venture in 1832, but also qualities such as a strong work ethic, an independent spirit, financial prudence, business foresight, determination and the understanding of the need to build strong relationships in business. Over the years, these qualities have helped those working for Jardines overcome many challenges and consolidate its position in Asia. There has been a constant evolution in the nature of the business interests of Jardine Matheson, or ‘the Firm’ as it has been affectionately known for most of its existence. Its business activities have kept pace with the times during its long history as new opportunities were sought when the profitability of older ventures waned. Today, Jardines’ businesses are at the forefront of their chosen markets. They include property investment and development, luxury hotels, retail, motor vehicles, financial services and insurance, engineering and construction, agribusiness, mining, restaurants and IT services.

  • Hongkong Land – Expanding Its Commercial Property Portfolio Across Asia Past, Present and Future
    2012 vol.1 Thistle The Magazine of Jardine Matheson Group Chairman Celebrates 50 years with Jardines > page 3 Group Managing Director Attends Asia-Pacific Summit in Hawaii > page 6 Gala Celebrates Mandarin Oriental’s Paris Debut > page 9 Hongkong Land – Expanding its Commercial Property Portfolio Across Asia Past, Present and Future As we enter the new Year of the Dragon, it is a good time to reflect on the past, make the most of the present and look to the future. At a special dinner held at Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo on 8th December, directors of our main listed companies and country heads came together to celebrate Group Chairman, Sir Henry Keswick’s 50 years with Jardine Matheson. A presentation described the Group’s colourful history during the past half century and the Chairman’s great contribution in building the business to where we are today. In our feature on pages 14 to 19, we see how Hongkong Land, one of Asia’s leading property investment, management and development groups, is making the most of the present by extending its brand across Asia and positioning itself for further expansion. As to the future, I shall be stepping down as Group Managing Director at the end of March after six challenging but very enjoyable years in this position, and so this is the last time I shall address you in this column. Since I joined Jardines in 1969, there have been many changes. At that time, we were primarily an agency house with the majority of our business in Hong Kong and despite our long history we were a much smaller group than we are now.
