Headquartered in Ewloe in Flintshire, Redrow built over 4,000 premium new homes across Wales and England and reported revenue of £1.3 billion for the year ending 28th June 2020. £187 million was invested in community infrastructure during this period with 93% of products, services and labour procured locally.

Redrow has also recently achieved the ‘Global Good Company’ of the Year Silver award in recognition of its social impact and launched its ‘Nature for People’ biodiversity strategy, established as part of a long-standing partnership with charity The Wildlife Trusts. Furthermore, the company is one of just eight UK construction companies to be named a Diversity Leader in the Financial Times’ inaugural list of European leaders for workplace diversity and inclusion.

Redrow directly employs 338 people across Wales, 15% of which are trainees, graduates or apprentices. Cardiff’s garden city, Plas Dwr accounts for three of 11 sites currently under development in Wales alongside Millstone View at Penymynydd in Flintshire, De Clare Gardens in Caerphilly, Carnegie Court in Bassaleg, The Hollies and The Cedars at Great Milton Park, Llanwern, Mill Meadows in Sudbrook and Plas Ty Draw and Churchlands in Lisvane.
