Aneel Mussarat[1] is a British businessman,[2] philanthropist and founder of MCR Property Group.[3][4][1]
Born and raised in Manchester, Aneel began building a career in real estate shortly after leaving school. He founded MCR Property Group in 1989 and turned it into one of the country's best known developers with a track record of creating in excess of £5bn worth of residential and commercial projects. The Manchester-based company creates thousands of homes annually and currently employs 325 full-time employees. The group's combined holdings place it amongst the largest property groups in the North West along with Peel Holdings and Bruntwood.[5]
In 2017 Aneel founded the Rafay Mussarat Foundation — named after his son, Rafay, and his late father[6] — with a mission to tackle homelessness and provide vital healthcare and education to those trapped by poverty. The foundation operates in the UK, as well as in Pakistan. His work in Bangladesh led to an invitation to speak before the European parliament in 2018. MEP Amjad Bashir — who helped arrange the trip — told a session of the parliament in June that year that Aneel's work had been “amazing” and that he was “ashamed” of the international community's efforts in comparison.
