Before stepping down in 2015, Peter Woo was chairman of property developer Wheelock & Co. and its primary subsidiary, Wharf Holdings. In 2020, his son Douglas, who currently serves as chairman of Wheelock, took the company private.


Aside from real estate, Wheelock and Wharf own significant telecom, port, and retailing businesses, including Lane Crawford, a luxury department store chain. Woo began his work with Chase Manhattan Bank in New York in 1972, where he met his future wife Bessie, the daughter of shipping magnate Y.K. Pao. In 1975, he moved to Hong Kong to work for her family's company. “You see people complain 'Now we don't want people from the mainland to come here to use our facilities. To me that's music to my ears when there is demand for your services.” - Peter Woo
