OUR HISTORY

Founded in 1968 by Howel Richards, our first vehicle was a Bedford TK bought for £80. The company’s early success came after completing a factory move for Christie Tyler of Bridgend, who then appointed us as their sole haulier. Continued growth led to new vehicles, more drivers and expansion into general haulage during the mid-70s. We later relocated to Brackla Industrial Estate, where we continue to operate today.
