Anthony Langley is a British industrialist who owns Langley Holdings, an engineering and manufacturing group based in Nottinghamshire. He founded the business in 1975 using what was left of his grandfather's failed engineering firm. Over time, he built it into a large international company with 5,500 employees, more than 90 subsidiaries, and annual revenue of around $2 billion. Forbes tracks his wealth in manufacturing and places him in the diversified industry.
His wealth came from building and expanding Langley Holdings through acquisitions and new markets. He launched Langley Mining, first selling equipment to the UK coal industry, then moving into steel, oil and gas customers. A key deal came in 2000, when he bought Clarke Chapman from Rolls-Royce. In 2021, he added Bergen Engines, also from Rolls-Royce. The group is now shifting toward behind-the-meter power systems for the AI data center boom.
How Anthony Langley built his fortune
Langley made his money by growing Langley Holdings into a broad engineering and manufacturing group. He began in 1975 and expanded from the remains of a failed family firm. Early on, Langley Mining sold equipment to the UK coal industry. Later, the customer base widened to steel, oil and gas. That move gave the business more than one market to serve and helped turn a small operation into a much larger industrial company.
Acquisitions played a big part in that growth. In 2000, Langley bought crane maker Clarke Chapman from Rolls-Royce, a deal that helped push the company forward. In 2021, he bought Bergen Engines from Rolls-Royce as well. Today, Langley Holdings has more than 90 subsidiaries and about $2 billion in annual revenue. The company is now aiming at behind-the-meter power solutions as demand rises from the AI data center market.
What Forbes says about his net worth
Forbes has followed Langley's fortune for several years. On the Forbes World's Billionaires List, it estimated his net worth at $1.5 billion in 2019. By 2024, that figure had risen to $2.5 billion. Those estimates line up with the long expansion of Langley Holdings, including major acquisitions and a wider industrial footprint across several countries through a network of manufacturing and engineering businesses.
As of October 20, 2026, Forbes' real-time billionaires tracker put Langley at $3.4 billion. That increase came as the group continued its pivot toward power equipment tied to the AI data center boom. Forbes also notes that Langley Holdings employs 5,500 people and generates around $2 billion in annual revenue. Those numbers help explain why its owner has moved higher on Forbes' list in recent years.
