FBU, a national organisation that champions the family-owned business sector, organises the Family Business Road Trip each year to celebrate and support family businesses across the UK.

As Paul Andrews, Founder & CEO of Family Business United , explains, “Each year we travel around England visiting family businesses conducting tours and interviews, with the aim of amplifying the voice of family business, and recognising the ongoing endeavours of the vital business sector for the UK.”

The East & East Anglia leg of the 2023 Family Business Road Trip will see Rickard Luckin partnering with FBU to sponsor the event and accompany Paul Andrews round the region stopping at numerous family firms including F.R. Shadbolt & Sons, Stoke-by-Nayland Resort and The Cambridge Juice Company.

Matthew Rowe, Head of Marketing at Rickard Luckin adds: “We’re really looking forward to partnering with Family Business United for the East and East Anglian leg of the 2023 Family Business Road Trip! Having partnered with FBU on The Oldest Family Business in Essex research in 2022 we’re thrilled to have the chance to see some of our local family firms ‘in action’ and have an opportunity to celebrate the fantastic family owned businesses in the region.”
