Gary Neville has transitioned from a celebrated football career to building a thriving business empire. The Manchester United icon and Sky Sports pundit recently announced his new role as a panelist on the BBC show “Dragons’ Den,” marking another milestone in his diverse career.
Neville’s investments span a variety of sectors, including luxury real estate. His notable properties include Hotel Football, situated adjacent to Old Trafford, and the opulent Stock Exchange Hotel near Piccadilly Gardens. He is also involved in the ambitious £120 million St Michael’s Project, which aims to develop high-end apartments, hotels, offices, and restaurants in Manchester’s city center.
In addition to his real estate ventures, Neville co-owns the Michelin-starred restaurant Relentless Group and has significant stakes in League Two club Salford City. His business activities also encompass digital media; he previously invested in the creative firm E3 Creative and co-founded the production company Buzz 16, known for shows like The Overlap and Class of 92 Full Time.
Neville’s entrepreneurial journey began in real estate during his early 20s, and his business acumen has since generated substantial revenue. Alongside his wife, he founded Relentless Group in 2015 and continues to manage various property and construction projects through Zerum.
His commitment to business is matched by his dedication to education and hospitality, with ventures like University Academy 92, which offers innovative courses, and GG Hospitality. As Neville continues to expand his portfolio, his relentless approach to business rеmains a defining characteristic.
