As a young apprentise, and right up to when I left the "modern" motor trade, I was surprised to see that the stock delivery pallets were made by Rubery Owen. As a young lad of course I was going to find out if it was the same company, but kept getting distracted!! but I would guess that it was?

Do we think the Owen family still own the rights to the BRM brand name ?

Through their interests, we know they do. And David and John Owen are extremely protective of the name after some not altogether happy licensing experiences in the past.
