Family Business Top 100 Recognition For Iain Anderson


We are delighted to announce that Iain Anderson of GAP Hire Solutions has been included within the inaugural Family Business United ‘Family Business Top 100,’ which recognises the exceptional contribution of individuals and their work within a family business.


Recognition in respect of:

  • Family Business Steward

  • Inspirational Leadership

  • Champion of Innovation

GAP Hire Solutions is the UK’s largest independent equipment rental company, hiring out a range of equipment from our eight divisions to industries including construction, utilities and events.


Founded in 1969 by his Dad, Gordon Anderson, the company is still family owned with Iain and his brother Douglas running the business as Joint Managing Directors since 1988 and they are extremely proud to now have four third-generation family members working at GAP.


Iain has a really positive leadership style and this is a family company that continues to go from strength to strength as a result. Iain is an active member of the family business community and is always prepared to offer an insight or assistance to his peers. He continues to navigate the business to new milestones and is totally deserving of his place in the Family Business Top 100.
