Business and commercial property historical research involve conducting a thorough investigation of the history of a specific property or area, typically to inform decisions related to the purchase, sale, or development of commercial properties. Worthington Clark offers historical research services for companies who need to uncover information about a property’s past uses, ownership, and any significant event.
Historical research for business and commercial property can be used to inform due diligence processes, property valuations, and development decisions. It can provide valuable insight into the property’s potential risks and factors that may have affected its value over time. Moreover, it can help minimise financial and legal risks for all parties involved.

Yes. A corporate history can be a valuable tool for businesses of all sizes. It can help you establish your company’s identity, make informed decisions, preserve institutional knowledge, and build a strong reputation. A corporate history can be created and maintained in a variety of formats, such as written narratives, timelines, and multimedia presentations.

A well-documented corporate history can serve several purposes such as helping the company with the following objectives;
- Establishing a sense of identity by highlighting the company’s unique story and values to help build brand recognition and loyalty
- Preserving institutional knowledge to ensure that important information is not lost over time, and that new employees have access to the insights and experiences of the previous staff as employees come and go.
- By sharing the company’s story with customers and the public, businesses can use their corporate history to build brand awareness and credibility and establish themselves as trusted and reputable players in their industry.
Maintaining a corporate history can be an important aspect of preserving a company’s legacy and ensuring its long-term success. By establishing a corporate archives program, you can create a structured system for collecting and organising historical records and artefacts that relate to the company’s history from documents, photographs, audio and video recordings, and other types of media.
