about DUKES

Our Story
Founded in 1993, Dukes is the leading family-run enforcement company for the recovery of local taxation, commercial rent arrears, and unpaid commercial debt.
We began recovering poll tax for local authorities, and over the past three decades, we have expanded our services and grown into a medium-sized business, collecting undisputed debts for housing associations, blue-chip companies, commercial landlords, and individuals (to name a few).
We’re a privately owned, family-run business and one of few companies in the industry where decisions and service levels are not controlled by profit margins. Our authentic family culture enables us to provide personalised, professional service, and our clients love the relationships that our family members create, combined with the level of unrivalled service that we provide.
Our Mission
Our mission is to deliver the best outcomes on recovery of debt for both clients and customers. We have a clear vision to continue to be the trusted enforcement company across England and Wales. To create local opportunities, educate and inspire communities to resolve their debt(s), all whilst maintaining our uncompromising values as we grow.
