Wren is this Yorkshireman’s third successful kitchen supplier. He sold his first, Hygena, for £200m back in 1987. Then came his US company, Mills Pride. This business was offloaded for around £800m in the late 1990s. Healey was in his mid-60s when he went for the hat-trick with Wren. The Humberside-based group now has more than 100 stores and is growing a presence in the United States. The business has more than 7,000 staff and turns over around £1bn. Healey’s late brother Eddie was a successful property developer and one of the driving forces behind Meadowhall, the vast retail park on the outskirts of Sheffield.
