David Dunsdon Snr started selling flowers and vegetables, as a sixteen year old, from a horse and cart to stall holders in Brentford Market during WWII. Those early endeavours as a greengrocer, enabled him to establish Coldunell as an automotive dealer and finance provider on the Great West Road, Middlesex in the 1950’s. From the 1960’s onwards, Coldunell’s modus operandi became to invest in commercial real estate, add value through asset management, refurbishment and development and hold thereafter.
John Dunsdon succeeded his father as Chairman from 1995 to 2012. During his tenure, the company grew its property portfolio, with particular emphasis on reversionary, freehold legacy investments and expanded its money lending activities.
Now in its third generation, led by David Dunsdon Jnr, Coldunell remains committed to a value investing philosophy and is actively seeking quality real estate and finance opportunities in London and the South East of England.
