Sweett Group, formerly known as Cyril Sweett, is an international physical assets management consultancy. It is part of Currie & Brown.

History

The firm was founded in 1928 by Cyril Sweett. The firm launched an initial public offering on the Alternative Investment Market under the name Cyril Sweett in 2007, raising £26m and valuing the business at £61m.[1] The Group initially expanded throughout the UK and then internationally, with the acquisition of a number of cost management and project management firms, including Burns Bridge, an Australian-based project management firm,[2] and in July 2010, Widnell, the biggest independent cost management firm in Asia.[3] The organisation was rebranded as Sweett Group in July 2011,[4] consolidating the Group's existing brands.[5]

The firm was acquired by the Jersey-based[6] Currie & Brown in August 2016,[7] and the firm's old website now redirects to Currie & Brown.[6]
