Barron Wood Distribution Company History
Barron Wood Distribution was formed by John and David Fairbrother in 1993 on their family farm in Tarleton, Lancashire. After working for a number of years at other transport companies across the North West of England, the enterprising brothers saw an opportunity to set-up their own business delivering fresh produce throughout England.

The bwd Approach to CSR
The company aims to achieve its business objectives in a responsible manner, recognising the economic, social and environmental impacts of its activities.

The concept of providing CSR is fully integrated into the long-term strategic approach for the business; thus reducing waste, improving the welfare of staff and engaging with the local community are paramount.
The company’s innovative approach to the logistics industry and most of all the strength and wealth of experience throughout its workforce provide the foundations needed to deliver a successful and sustainable CSR strategy.
