Rootes Group
William Rootes started in car sales and by 1924 was one of the biggest distributors in the UK. Then he went shopping, putting Hillman, Humber and Commer into his trolley in 1929, and Clement, Talbot and Sunbeam in 1935. Singer Cars failed to adapt to the 1950s markets and agreed to join the Rootes Group in 1955.
