He bought a six-wheel Ford and an eight-wheel ERF, and the mixed fleet started to expand. In the 1980s, the company standardised on Volvo F7s, and has been 100% Volvo ever since.

In the mid-1970s, Mick’s son Shaun started showing an interest in the business. The 12-year-old worked in the garage after school and at weekends, repairing and washing trucks.

“He never moaned,” says Gorry, “he just got on with the job in hand. He has been by my side ever since, through the good times and the lean times, and has never let me down. He is 50 now and is our traffic planner. He has given the company 38 years of devoted service. A man could not ask of more from his son.”

There are now three generations of Gorry working for the company and despite having so much family support, Mr Mick Gorry has no plans to retire any time soon.
