Biography
"When I started the group in 1968, with one small factory in Huntingdon, I had no clear vision of what we could achieve – it was the last thing on my mind! And so it remains today. The Caparo story is one of friendship and gratitude – and is forward-looking. We have demonstrated our belief in the manufacturing industry and we will continue to do so. Even in difficult times and adverse conditions, managers with skill and a belief in people will always be able to prosper. Caparo is more than a successful business enterprise – it is a story of people, of values and of human effort. Above all, it is a story of faith and family.
I have always believed that hard work and integrity far outweigh any short cuts to success. In Caparo it is these principles that bind the global Caparo team together".
