Our story
H+H grew from Harrison & Hetherington’s livestock business, established in 1870. From the outset, the business was built around something more important than transactions: relationships, reputation and a practical understanding of rural life.
Generations of farmers and rural businesses have trusted us to help them make significant decisions, realise the value of their assets and respond to change. That trust remains the foundation of H+H today.
The rural economy has never stood still, and neither have we. As customers’ needs became broader and more complex, H+H developed and acquired new capabilities to support them. Our expertise now reaches far beyond the auction ring, encompassing machinery, land and property, consultancy, environmental advice, insurance and financial services.
Each area has its own specialist knowledge. Together, they give H+H a wider view of the opportunities, pressures and decisions facing rural people, families and businesses.
For many years, our expertise was delivered through a collection of separate businesses and brands. We are now bringing those strengths together as one H+H.
This is not a move away from our heritage. It is the next chapter in it. One H+H makes it easier for customers to understand what we can offer, find the right expertise and benefit from better-connected advice. It also gives our people more opportunities to work across traditional boundaries and solve the whole problem, rather than one part of it.
Rural life is changing quickly. New technology, environmental priorities, shifting markets, succession, diversification and changing patterns of land use are creating difficult choices as well as new possibilities.
H+H combines experience passed down through generations with the curiosity and commercial judgement needed for what comes next. We will continue to evolve, while remaining close to the people, places and livelihoods that shaped us.
