Little’s Chauffeur Drive, a family owned business based in Glasgow today announced a partnership with Family Business United (FBU) to provide the vehicle that will be used for the duration of the Scottish Family Business Road Trip 2023 which is organised by Family Business United.
The partnership will see the chauffeur driven car support a week long tour of family businesses across Scotland as part of the Scottish Family Business Road Trip that is taking place from October 2-6 and will showcase family businesses and their significant impact on the national economy.
From their headquarters in Scotland, Little’s provide a comprehensive chauffeur drive service on a global scale. For over 50 years, their clients have trusted them to deliver award-winning business services and leisure tours with efficiency, professionalism and discretion.
“We are delighted to partner with Family Business United,” said Heather Matthews, Managing Director of Little’s Chauffeur Drive.
“We were involved with this event a couple of years ago and it was a fantastic celebration of the family business community in Scotland, something that resonates closely with us as a family business ourselves. We are delighted to be providing the car to enable Paul and the team at Family Business United visit as many family firms as possible during this week long tour that will take in family firms in and around Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling and the Borders."
"It shines the light on family firms across many sectors, sizes and generations and we are really happy to be a part of it.”
“We are excited to partner with Littles as it adds real authenticity to the trip given that they are a family business and it also ensures that we make the most of our time in Scotland,” added Paul Andrews, CEO of Family Business United.
“They have plenty of experience of organising events and tours and we are thrilled to leave this to the family business experts in this field. The Scottish Family Business Road Trip is a special event, firmly fixed in our annual calendar where we get to go behind the scenes of family firms, conduct interviews with family business owners in their own place of work and each year their pride, passion and entrepreneurial spirit comes to the fore."
"There is something truly special about family businesses, many having the family name above the door, an undeniable essence for doing business the right way, looking after their staff and they care. They care about their people, their businesses and the communities in which they operate and it is a real pleasure to meet them where the magic happens."
"Family business matters and this event really does help to put the family business sector on the map. We are truly appreciative of the support from Little’s in making it happen once again.”
As well as Little’s the Scottish Family Business Road Trip is supported by sponsors Brooks Macdonald, AAB, Turcan Connell and Western Pension Solutions.
