William Hill PLC is one of the world’s leading betting and gaming companies, employing over 15,000 people. Its origins are in the UK where it was founded in 1934, and where it is listed on the London Stock Exchange. The majority of its $2.1 billion annual revenues are still derived from the UK, where it has a national presence of licensed betting offices and one of the leading online betting and gaming services. In 2012, it established William Hill US with a focus on retail and mobile operations in Nevada, which is now the largest sports betting business in the USA. William Hill US currently operates 107 race and sports books in Nevada and the state’s leading mobile sports betting app and serves as the exclusive risk manager for the State of Delaware’s sports lottery. Following the ruling in May 2018 by the Supreme Court that the federal ban on state sponsored sports betting was unconstitutional, the company is planning to operate where permitted by law throughout America. William Hill also has licensed online operations in Italy and Spain and serves customers throughout the world from its Online headquarters in Gibraltar
Founded by William Hill himself, William Hill betting shops were born in the UK and have offered sports fans a superior betting experience for over 85 years. Hill was a self-starter who bet it all on himself, and this mindset has carried over for nearly a century as the betting and gaming company has become a leader in its industry around the world.
