Originating from Merthyr Tydfil in South Wales; Huw Thomas graduated from Bristol Polytechnic (now University of the West of England) with a Diploma in Valuation and Estate Management in 1987.
Upon leaving Bristol, Huw joined the commercial property department of Dreweatt Neate in Newbury, which provided him with excellent experience of all sectors of the commercial property market during the boom time of the late 1980s.
In late 1989, Huw moved with Dreweatt Neate to set up a new Commercial Department for the company in Chippenham dealing with all aspects of commercial property in Wiltshire and the surrounding area.
In 1998, Huw joined King Sturge in Bath becoming a Partner in 2007; then a Director in Jones Lang LaSalle when the firms merged in 2011. During this time Huw dealt with the full range of commercial properties.
In October 2013, Huw established Huw Thomas Commercial based in Chippenham, but covering the surrounding areas of Wiltshire, Bath and South Gloucestershire. The business quickly became the dominant commercial property agency in the area and was recognised as Chippenham’s “Best Small Business” in the 2018 Chippenham Business Awards.
The client base of the business now includes –
- Wiltshire Council
- Chippenham Town Council
- Aberdeen Standard Investments
