Mr J. K. Swire Mr John Kidston Swire, head of the £1000m Swire Group in Hong Kong from 1946 to 1966, died on February 22 at the age of 90.
It was Swire who, with typical courage and resolution, led the old-established family shipping and trading business after the war into large-scale air transport and property activities, so that its Cathay Pacific subsidiary is now the largest regional air carrier in that part of the world. Son of John Swire of Hubbard’s Hall, Harlow, Essex, he was educated ...at Eton and University College, Oxford, and served with the Essex Yeomanry in the 1914–1918 war. He became a director of John Swire and Sons in 1920 and chairman in 1946.
A handsome man of strong character and great integrity, he played a leading part in building up what is now one of the leading British companies operating in the Far East.
He married in 1923 Juliet Richenda, daughter of Theodore Barclay of Fanshaws, Hertford, by whom he had two sons – John, now chairman of the Swire Group, and Sir Adrian, deputy chairman – and two daughters.
