Imbuia Holdings was formed by an experienced consulting partner following the demise of Arthur Andersen in 2001. Initially we
took on the completion of a number of projects and programmes that were in progress at the time, and successfully completed these
over the next three years.
Since then, we have successfully completed engagements in a number of countries around the world, working in a variety of industry sectors. Much of the work that we do is business-critical, multi-national, and of significant size, with the sponsors being at C-level or above. Our experienced staff are experts in their fields, and we can supplement these with a pool of associates if necessary when we undertake large-scale engagements or respond to specialised requirements. Imbuia Holdings is based near Salisbury, England, and operates internationally. |
We are often asked where the name of our company comes from. The Imbuia (pronounced imm-boy-ar, with equal stress on all syllables) is a large tree that grows to around 40m in height. A member of the laurel family with the botanical name of Phoebe porosa, it is native to Brazil but was imported to South Africa in the early 19th Century as a wood for making high-quality furniture. Once there, it quickly became established and widespread. We used to have a house and office that was shaded by a grove of these wonderful trees, hence the name. |
