History edit
The company was founded by John Bloor in 1969.[4] In 2002, annual housing sales reached 1,870 making Bloor Homes then the largest housebuilder to be owned by one person.[5] In 2016, Bloor Homes was one of the largest privately owned housebuilding groups in the UK; the combined group was worth around £725 million.[6]
In February 2024, Bloor was among eight UK house-builders targeted by the Competition and Markets Authority in an investigation into suspected breaches of competition law. The CMA said it had evidence that firms shared commercially sensitive information with competitors, influencing the build-out of sites and the prices of new homes.[7]
Operations edit
As of 2012, Bloor Homes was building around 1,800 homes a year.[8] In 2015, this increased to 2,000 a year due to an upturn in the UK economy.[9]
