Our History
In 1956, John Finnbar O’Sullivan took the ferry from Cork in Ireland with £5 in his pocket and arrived in England looking for a job and accommodation.
After employment in the steel industry and pharmaceuticals, the idea of Fitzroy™ was born.
Initially working from a small rented office in the centre of Leicester, John set about launching excellent value-for-money products and building the Fitzroy™ brand.
