We like to describe ourselves as a family-owned, and family-run specialist logistics company based just outside Heathrow and from the humble start when Frederick Woolley had produced a service that was second to none in the secure logistics industry.
Frederick built his own tracking system what was the best on the market at the time when tracking system was at their infancy but only used the system on FET vehicles and had blue-chip companies knocking on his door to transport their goods safely throughout Europe.
FET moved into the pharmaceutical in 1999, and this took a new direction for our family business, and Frederick took on a partner and still keeping it in the family Harry Hughes who over the years has become our responsibe person and has made us one of the best pharmaceutical logistics companies in the UK.
Harry has written his own QMS that combine ISO9001-2015 and comply with TAPA and GDP good distribution practice requirements for the pharmaceutical industry.
FET has been audited many times, and we have passed every time, and we are a proud company to have done that.
It is now 2023, and the pharmaceutical industry is for ever-changing FET has established their selves at the heart of this industry and are ready for the future.
With Frederick’s two grandson’s now part of FET its truly a family run business
In 2023 FET opened their offices in the Netherlands and look forward to new ventures.
