Hilary Devey was known for the logistics business group Pall-Ex on the British television programme Dragon's Den.
Pall-Ex is a palletised freight network. Instead of relying on a single operator to handle every shipment, the model uses a network of regional hauliers working within a coordinated system. That structure helped businesses move pallet freight across the United Kingdom and beyond.
Devey became associated with the company after building it into a major logistics enterprise. Her background made her one of the programme’s most recognisable Dragons when she joined the panel in 2011.
Pall-Ex should not be confused with a parcel-delivery company offering ordinary consumer post. Its core identity is freight logistics, particularly palletised goods. Devey’s business biography is also distinct from that of Deborah Meaden, whose portfolio is more closely associated with consumer brands, leisure, and property investments.
