The Ponsonby family have a long history in haulage dating right back to 1963 where Denis Ponsonby started his own company armed with just his small van and his desire for success.
The company was called "D.J. Ponsonby" and it grew year after year to become one of the UK's high profile hauliers; even making the front cover of the "truck magazine" twice!
Mike Ponsonby (Denis's Grandson) decided to keep the Ponsonby flag flying after his grandfather moved to subcontracting only and "M.A. Ponsonby" was born.
