Victor Chandler is one of the major names in England’s bookmaking community and has been since it was founded in the 1940s. The company was founded by the grandfather of current chairman Victor Chandler, William Chandler. The Chandler patriarch had made his money in greyhound racing, and after starting the bookmaking business passed it over to Victor Chandler, Sr.—father of the current chairman. The elder Chandler died unexpectedly in 1974, and the business has been run since by the younger Victor Chandler. Chandler is arguably the highest profile individual bookmaker in England and has a reputation as something of a visionary in the industry. He was one of the first European gambling executives to recognize the potential of online wagering. Additionally, he was the first British bookmaker to look ‘offshore’ as a way of avoiding the country’s hefting gaming tax. In 1998, Chandler moved his entire operation to Gibraltar. Other British bookmakers like Ladbroke’s and Stan James soon followed and started the transformation of the territory to a hub of the online gaming industry.

Today, the company writes over £1billion in action annually and has over a half a million customers in more than 160 different countries. The Chandler name still adorns a couple dozen retail bookmaking establishments in the UK. The company sponsors a variety of sporting events in Europe including soccer and Formula 1 racing.
