Many years ago, Richard Kuipers started a little removalist business from his home. It was just him, a vehicle and a strong work ethic.
Over the years, Richard, with the support of his wife, Cheryl, grew this business, Two Men and a Truck, into a multimillion-dollar operation that, as of 2022, owned a fleet of 94 trucks, employed 300 people and completed 20,000 moves per year.
Along the way, Richard was joined in the business by Cheryl, his daughters and his grandchildren. That changed everything - because what had been Richard's prize possession now became a family business. Cue tension, drama and challenges.
To solve the problem, they created a family charter and succession plan. This process involved a lot of hard work and a lot of conflict. But it left both the business and the family in a better place.
Inside the Box tells the story of Richard, his family, and Two Men and a Truck. More importantly, it explains how to build a successful business that you can pass on to future generations.
