In 1959, Harry Francis Senior and Harry Francis Junior started trading at 120 Fitzmaurice Street in Wagga Wagga, dealing in rural produce. A few years later in October 1962, Ian Francis joined the business, and the company diversified into trading livestock. Jeff Francis joined the team in February 1963, and he still plays an active role in the business. From the 1990s-2010s, staff members Tim Francis, Alex Croker, Matt Hawker Vanessa Livermore and Cathy Foster all joined the business, giving us our current team.
