THE
BIG QUESTION
What made you take the leap into entrepreneurship?
Caroline Moody, Moody Logistics and Storage I never intended to join the family business, but circumstances dictated and once here I became completely hooked on logistics. My arrival coincided with a period of rapid and exciting changes, including ‘just in time’ deliveries that have transformed the sector. I have worked in all aspect of the business, including HR, operations, and sales, which gave me the knowledge and confidence to grow the firm in terms of its fleet and workforce. No MD can do it alone, and I’m fortunate to have a fantastic team behind me, including my brother Richard and brother-in-law Gavin, together with other key managers. Our whole staff are very much part of the Moody ‘family’. As the third generation to lead the company, road transport is in my blood. As such I feel inspired and obliged to take this business forward, through investment, identifying growth opportunities, and promoting the sector whenever possible.
