40 years at Furnells

Our managing director Zachary Thole has recently celebrated 40 years with the company.

He joined the company in 1985 as a traffic clerk at the tender age of 17.

Over the years he has worked his way up through the ranks becoming transport manager and transport director, before moving into his current role as managing director.

Zac's 40 years at Furnells

 ‘If I’m honest, I can’t quite believe that forty years has passed by so quickly.’

“There have been many changes during my time, particularly keeping up to date with the many different government alterations in legislation, which can make life interesting. But I couldn’t do the job without my team, many of whom have been part of the business for over twenty years themselves. 

Every day is different as we navigate the varying and changing needs of our customers. Our work can be so varied, ranging from delivering an industrial 3 deck pizza oven to a kitchen in the basement of a restaurant to lowering a large heavyweight printer through a hole in the roof of an office block to the offices below; and somehow we make it happen!

Well done Zac for all your hard work and everything you do to keep us ‘on the road.’
