Who We Are

Cost and contract consultants since 1780.

Corderoy was founded in London around 1780 — at the origin of the quantity surveying profession itself.

Independent and privately owned ever since, the practice has grown to some 250 people across four disciplines. Corderoy International brings this depth of expertise to the Middle East, with established operations in Jeddah and Riyadh and a track record across some of the Kingdom’s most significant projects.
