It was incorporated in 1972 following the merger of two leading companies which had been trading in Mauritius since the early 19th Century, namely Blyth Brothers, founded in 1830 by James Blyth, and Ireland Fraser & Co. Ltd., founded in 1850 by George Ireland and James Fraser[3].
In 1994 the group became a public company and was admitted to the official list of the Stock Exchange of Mauritius.
