W. H. Malcolm Ltd (trading as the Malcolm Group) is a logistics company based in Linwood, Renfrewshire, Scotland. The company provides logistic services (Malcolm Logistics and Malcolm Rail) including road and rail transport, warehousing, and terminal management. Other group activities include civil engineering, plant hire, construction (Malcolm Construction), primarily groundwork and vehicle maintenance.
The origins of the company trace to the 1920s,[4] when Donald Malcolm left school in his early teenage years and started running his family's small coal business. The business grew and in the 1950s entered a partnership with Grampian Holdings; the company expanded into the road building through an equipment hire business, and a shale bing business.[5]
In 1960, when the company was acquired by the industrial holding company Grampian Holdings Plc, the company's assets included 37 vehicles and seven construction equipment items.[6] Donald Malcolm remained in charge of W H Malcolm after the takeover.[6] Donald Malcolm died in 2003; two of his sons Walter and Andrew took over management of the business.[5]
In 2002 Grampian Holdings Plc which was public listed on the stock exchange, was renamed The Malcolm Group Plc. In 2005 the company was taken back into private ownership by the Malcolm family and the Bank of Scotland plc.[6]
