Kwee family

The Kwee family is a Singaporean family that owns the Pontiac Land Group, a privately held luxury real estate developer and hotel owner based in Singapore. The Kwee brothers Kwee Liong Keng, Kwee Liong Tek, Kwee Liong Seen and Kwee Liong Phing collectively run the group.

  • The four Kwee siblings control privately held Pontiac Land, which owns an array of luxury hotels and iconic office towers across the island-nation.
  • Pontiac Land was founded by their Indonesian father Henry Kwee, a textile trader and real estate developer, who migrated to Singapore in 1958.
  • In New York, the brothers are building an 82-story tower beside the Museum of Modern Art, where penthouses cost more than $70 million.
  • In 2017, the brothers acquired the Cappella Hotel group from legendary luxury hotelier Horst Schulze for an undisclosed sum.
  • Their newest project in the U.S. is a hotel in a joint venture with the famous Mayo Clinic in Rochester.
