A message from the Chairman

Duckhams has been part of motoring life for more than 125 years. That history is not something we keep behind glass. It is the foundation of everything we engineer today, and the standard we hold ourselves to.

Our purpose is straightforward: protect every engine we touch, support the motorists, workshops and partners who rely on us, and keep moving the brand forward into new markets with the same pioneering spirit Alexander Duckham began with in 1899.

Jabir Sheth · Chairman
