Originally cutting his teeth in the banking and finance sector in Brisbane, Ken embarked on a career in the property industry on the Sunshine Coast over 30 years ago. In conjunction with his family, Ken established, owned and operated the highly successful Reed Property Group, ultimately employing over 100 staff and delivering more than $1.0 billion in property development projects across Queensland within the residential, commercial, retail and industrial sectors.

Ken has also been actively involved in the hospitality industry for more than 20 years, during which time he has held interests in multiple hotel and tavern operations, entertainment venues and short-term accommodation facilities throughout the state.

After selling Reed Property Group in 2014, Ken enjoyed some time off with family before establishing the Double R Group with business partner Scott Rossow in 2017.

Ken is a Fellow of the Urban Development Institute and a Senior Fellow of the University of the Sunshine Coast.

Scott brings a wealth of experience to the Double R team thanks to a 35-year career in project management, shipping and distribution, chartering and worldwide logistics.

This knowledge has been bolstered in the past decade in the role of CEO for Cargo Transport Systems, which employs 40 staff in conjunction with a global network of agents. The company provides coverage to more than 140 countries and 500 cities around the world and Scott’s strong transactional background including start-up, financing, mergers and acquisitions and final sale have contributed to its growth and success.

In 2017, Scott joined forces with business partner Ken Reed to establish Double R Group, combining his expertise and interests to deliver results for the robust partnership’s diverse investment portfolio.

Scott is a member of GTO (Global Transport Organisation), CCIQ (Chamber of Commerce and Industry Qld), WWPC (World Wide Partner Consortium) and WPA (World Partner Alliance).
