About Jordans
Mr Richard Jordan founded his company registration and law stationery business in 1863, operating from 123 Chancery Lane, London.
In 1895 he converted the business into a private limited company, which it has remained ever since.
People tend to know Jordans for different things - but rarely for everything we do. Depending on your
perspective, we are either the UK's market leader in company formations; or the leading conveyancing search provider; or a major
player in the company search and business information sector; or the UK's leading independent law publisher and training provider.
The company operates nationally (with offices in Bristol, London, Edinburgh and Cardiff), as well as internationally (with its
own offices in British Virgin Islands, Cyprus, Gibraltar, Seychelles and the Channel islands). The Jordans Group comprises several
autonomous but linked companies: Jordans Limited, Jordans International Limited, Jordan Publishing Limited, and Oswalds - the trading
name for Jordans (Scotland) Limited.
Jordans Limited's turnover was £17.1 million for the 2004 financial year. The company
employs over 250 staff worldwide, 230 of whom are based in the UK.
