About
This visit takes Family Business UK Members along a 100-year journey, from when Bettys and Taylors, one of the UK’s best known family businesses, first opened its doors until today.
Discover the key milestones along the way, by hearing from the family business stakeholders who guide the vision for the business – “Working together to build a great Yorkshire Family Business, inspired by our Swiss heritage, creating prosperity and pride by doing what we believe in” – and a set of values: prosperity, people, planet, product, passion and process.
Learn about the decisions made and the day-to-day operation of the business which ensures a legacy, to be handed down to future generations of stakeholders.

FBUK Family Business Visits are for Members of Family Business UK keen to:
- learn about other family businesses;
