- itn news reporting on the death of the haulage firm man Edward stobart died 56 on the 31 March 2011
It is with great sadness and regret that Stobart Group shares the news that Edward Stobart,
56, son of Eddie Stobart, passed away at 8.10am this morning at University Hospital
Coventry, after heart problems yesterday.
Although not involved with today's Stobart Group business, Edward was managing director
of Eddie Stobart Ltd for over 30 years -- a business started by his father Eddie. Edward built
Eddie Stobart Ltd into the iconic brand and business we know today before selling the
company to brother William and business partner Andrew Tinkler in 2004. William Stobart
continues the family involvement in his role as chief operating officer of Stobart Group
today.
Our thoughts are with Edward's wife Mandy, his children and family at this difficult time.
so please take a minute to remeber whare all your goods come from many thanks byron
Ironic that his life was limited to 56!
Like his trucks 😂😂😂
He teach us lots....
He started with 8 trucks and left with 1000 trucks... Work Hard 💪👌
It’s a Shame the company has gone to the dogs now
i am overseas whats happened ? to big ?bad m anagament ?
He never owned the company,, anyway,,, he does,,,romans,cha,11,v33-36 read that,interesting that is,, very,
I remember watching a programme how this company got to where it did. At the end of the programme it show Edward sitting down to eat his evening meal at a large dining table, all by himself as all the hard and long hours building up the company. Had taken its toll on his marriage, what a shame for them all
I have driven for 36 years myself and wherever you came across Eddie Stobart trucks in Europe, they always looked neat and clean, just as a driver should take good care of his truck. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Funny how the legend overwrites the facts. Nobody remembers how he put many owner operators out of business by bidding for contracts that were not tenable and when the competition was gone he put his prices up again.
He made a name so what
UnfortanTly thats buissness init,,, ruthless,,, to survive
Exactly, Eddie's firm did that trick in Barrow-in-Furness from personal experience and almost ran the local haulage firms into the ground after he'd had his way there. My source for that is a projects manager on their books (back then) who was disgusted with the tactic.
@chrisdurant4627 he didn't though u muppet
@@paulthompson9278Yeah, he made a "name" alright..... A ruthless beep beep.
RIP mr eddie storbart
Was he the same as in the 2010 rally team in the WRC?
RIP.
Yh it's been 2 years since he passed
Edward died on the 31/03/2011 not April 2011!
RIP EDDIE
Ironic how he was the one who introduced speed limiters and then himself couldn't get over 56! 🤔
Ironically he was also limited to 56 like his trucks lol
When did he pass away nd isn't it going to be 2years since he died
william and edward are brother ( are they or not ) who the father or did eddie an edward step brother. im confuse
The part when he's being interviewed where it says it was in 1986. It can't have been as the truck behind him is a 4 series Scania that was introduced til 1995 lol 😂
we will all miss u Eddie rip
He alwsy said keep it at 56
@oliver17ish eddie has done a good job now its time to say bey love u eddie

Hi there is a good video it shows you how good edward stobart was but is a boss nower days
still finding out but no one helping
At the end does she call him Edwin stobart
rest in peace
Funked it up for the owner driver though, cutting rates that no body could run at
rip Edward stobart
He always said keep it at 56 save fuel i don.t think ment his life or did he.
r.i.p
king of the road
What a legend. This man went from nothing to millions. Great bloke.
Not exactly nothing. A thriving family business with 8 trucks is still a helluva better leg up than most of us get. And I've yet to meet a "successful" businessman who was a great bloke. Maybe Mr Stobart was an exception, I don't know, I never met the bloke. But most folk in his position are ruthless bastards. You kind of have to be. It goes with the territory.
And back to nothing..
Paid 2 pound an hour..
And their planners couldn't plan a piss up in a brewery.
Stobart really cared about image but didn't care too much about safety. Pushing commercial drivers to the limit every day GETS OTHER ROAD USERS KILLED.
I go spotting and on Sunday I will do a money silence for him rip eddie stobart we will all miss u
Best company to work for if want to rinse out the hours and get paid for doing nothing, and if you drive a diesel you can rip the anti Siphon out of the tank and help yourself to the fuel and nothing will be done about it.
Shit company.
