History


Pat Gallagher (the chairman of Gallagher) was born in County Leitrim, Ireland (as part of a grocer family). The family and Pat (aged 17) left Ireland and moved to the village of Aylesford to live with his aunt. Pat started working for Jubilee Clips in Gilingham before going to work with Aylesford Sewage works. His father Patrick was killed after falling into a tank. After her husband's death, his mother moved back to Ireland. He decided to stay in Kent. He then drove a digger for builder Pat Burke, now his best friend, who advised him there was enough work for everyone. The young Gallagher bought that digger for £2000 and that started his construction career. I didn’t want to work for anyone but be free to do my own thing," he said. "In those days, it was all about learning a trade. If you had a trade, you were made for life. Today it’s about going to university
Three of his four children – Stephen, Richard and Lyndsey – are also involved in the business.
