“I had the privilege of working with Stan for the past six months. We were setting up a major warehouse operation in Staffordshire. I have never seen a warehouse built so quickly. This was because of Stan’s drive. He had more energy and enthusiasm than people half his age. It would not be over-sentimental to say that his staff loved him. You could not have wished to meet a more genuine and generous man.” Peter Ulleri, director, 2050 Logistics “A true legend of the haulage biz. In the past 12 months Edward Stobart, Trefor Jones (of LE Jones of Ruthin) and Stan Robinson have all sadly passed away. Each of them had a vision and the drive to make it happen. Their legacies are three great companies. RIP.” Des Ponsonby, MD, Corporate Solutions (Logistics) “The haulage industry will miss a very genuine man, very sad. RIP.” Jochem Cheeseman, regional sales manager, P&O Ferrymasters “Over many years, I have watched the passion with which Stan pursued the longer trailer campaign. The industry needs more characters like him.” Mark Carrington, MD and owner, King Vehicle Engineering
