Gary Wilcox , Group CEO , delves into the company ’ s history .

“ Colin Wilcox , my father , and James Gourlay established the company in 1981 . James ’ son , Julian , currently serves as CFO . Jag UFS originated from humble beginnings in James ’ front room . Colin brought his experience in operations and accounting , having previously served as a director , while James , with a background in sales and marketing for major American companies , contributed entrepreneurial flair . Despite their contrasting personalities , their respective experiences made them the perfect match ; they complemented each other . Since its inception , the company has remained steadfast in its core belief of prioritizing service excellence . In 1986 , Julian and I joined the company , initially reluctant but eventually embracing the challenges of working in a family business . A significant milestone for us has been the establishment of multiple offices : four in the UK , four in China and Hong Kong , and two in the US . Another important achievement was navigating through the pandemic , where we not only survived but thrived , expanding our team by approximately ten percent and emerging stronger than before . Our customer service philosophy remained strong , and our existing large client base in the medical industry gave us an advantage . Despite the uncertainty , we realized our US and China offices positioned us well to adapt swiftly to pandemic regulations ,” he informs .
