Family businesses are built on shared values, long-term thinking, and the stories that connect one generation to the next—and in 2026, those stories hit the road. Family Business United has just completed the Family Business Road Trip 2026, a unique journey designed to bring family business leaders, owners, and next-generation members together.  Travelling across the country in our Hendy Group car, we visited outstanding family enterprises, heard first-hand the stories behind their success, explored the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of family business.

 

More than an event, the Family Business Road Trip 2026 was, as it is each year, an opportunity to step outside the day-to-day, discover fresh perspectives, and celebrate the people, purpose, and legacy that make family businesses truly special.

 

Below you can see the businesses visited and involved in the trip with links to the insights provided and features written, or a link to their website.

​

We could not undertake such a journey without the support of our sponsors and would like to show our appreciation by thanking Brooks Macdonald, Hendy Group, Western Pension Solutions, TWYD & Co, Crowe, Birketts LLP and Gorvins Solicitors.
