History

[edit | edit source]

The company was founded by Reo Stakis in the 1930s.[2] It was sold to Ladbroke in March 1999 for £1.2 billion, and the combined company renamed Hilton Group.[2] Following the sale, many of the Stakis top personnel were retained by Hilton and took some of the senior positions within the company including Sir David Michels the then CEO of Stakis, who went on to become Chief Executive of Hilton Group.[3]
