Yesterday we received the news that Hilary Devey CBE, the founder of the Pall-Ex network, had passed away. Everyone at Harbour is shocked and saddened to hear this news, especially as we are proud shareholder members of the network she founded in 1996.
Hilary was a tremendous, dynamic and charismatic person who will be sadly missed. We see her entrepreneurship and drive for delivery companies to work together in a network for the good of the customer a prime benefit of what we do, and is a huge part of her lasting legacy, which we are all rightly proud of.
Whilst Hilary sold Pall-Ex to the members and management in 2019, the company she founded over 25 years ago will be forever grateful for her drive, passion and hard work in creating what we have today.
Our sincerest condolences go to her family, friends and colleagues throughout the industry.
