About us
HJS Group is a privatly owned property investment business with roots in Northern Ireland dating back to 1969. We invest in and manage residential, retail and commercial property, with a focus on long-term income, active management and lasting value.
Our story
Our story began in October 1969, when Hugh Kennedy opened Curleys, a small grocery shop on Belfast’s Glen Road. Through hard work and an understanding of the local community, the business grew into a successful independent supermarket group.
That growth laid the foundations for a wider property business. The opening of the Oaks Centre in Dungannon in 1985 and the subsequent development of the Kennedy Centre in Belfast established the group’s long-standing involvement in retail and commercial property.
Following the sale of the Curleys supermarkets to Sainsbury’s in 2008 and 2009, and the Wine Cellar chain to Wineflair in 2015, the group strengthened its focus on property investment and management.
HJS Group today
Today, our interests span residential property, shopping centres, retail parks and commercial investments across Northern Ireland. Our properties accommodate a broad mix of national retailers, local businesses and service providers and investments.
We take a long-term approach to ownership, building relationships with occupiers and identifying practical ways to improve our properties. Our priority is acquiring and managing income-producing investments, supported by selective refurbishment and development where it adds value.
Looking ahead
We continue to seek residential, retail and commercial investment opportunities throughout Northern Ireland.
We thank the customers, tenants, colleagues and communities who have supported the business since 1969.
