EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the early beginnings of Harrison Ivinson's shop in Wigton, near Carlisle, Cumbria, England, during the 1900s. The image, a glimpse into the past, shows the modest storefront with its simple signage bearing the name Harrison Ivinson. This humble beginning would later transform into the renowned Eddie Stobart Logistics, a British road haulage and logistics company. At the time, Harrison Ivinson was an independent carrier, transporting goods locally and regionally. The horse and cart parked outside the shop provide a stark contrast to the modern trucks that would later become synonymous with the Eddie Stobart brand. The image also reveals a bustling street scene, with people going about their daily business, adding to the vibrant atmosphere of the town. The photograph is a testament to the determination and hard work of Harrison Ivinson, who laid the foundation for the successful business that would emerge in the following decades. The entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to customer service that defined Harrison Ivinson's operation would continue to thrive under the leadership of Eddie Stobart, who took over the business in the 1960s and expanded it into a major logistics company. This photograph is an essential piece of history, offering a unique perspective on the evolution of transportation and business in England during the 1900s. It serves as a reminder of the importance of small beginnings and the transformative power of vision and hard work.
