Morris & Co

Morris & Company is a fifth-generation business with a long, established history in property development, restoration, and leasing.

Their story begins back in 1869 in a small black and white grocery shop in Frankwell, Shrewsbury. There, James Kent Morris established his candle business with a robust service philosophy that has stood the test of time: “To do the common thing uncommonly well brings success.”

This ethos drove the company's early success, leading it to develop and capitalise on many trading operations as markets matured, including care, retail, fashion, cafe and bakery, with the family remaining central to the growth of each business.

Today, the organisation has grown into the Morris Group, encompassing: Morris & Company, Morris Property, Marrington Escapes, and Morris Capital with the revised but collective ethos of “Excellence as Standard”.

The Welsh Bridge office serves as the central hub, housing Directors and core functions such as Legal, Estates, Development, Investment, Legal, Finance and Marketing. The construction team, based at Bicton Business Park, consists of qualified surveyors and construction managers who take genuine pride in sourcing quality local materials and partnering with trusted local suppliers to deliver outstanding service and products.
