Wheelock and Company Limited
 PROFILE
Wheelock and Company is a holding company with principal interests in real estate and retail. The firm develops hotels, housing, and shopping centers in China, Hong Kong, and Singapore through subsidiaries Marco Polo, New Asia, Realty Development, and Wharf. In addition to its property holdings, Wharf has cable television, Internet, and telephone services in Hong Kong. Wheelock also manufactures container terminals for the shipping industry. Subsidiary Lane Crawford runs a chain of upscale department stores in Hong Kong. Turbulent stock markets have forced Wheelock to postpone taking some of its businesses private in an effort to streamline operations. Former chairman Peter Woo owns about 60% of the company.
