Hilary Devey Cause Of Death: How Did Hilary Devey Die? What Happened?
On 11 June 2022, Devey died at her holiday home in Morocco, at the age of 65 following a long illness.
Tributes were paid by her former Dragon’s Den co-stars Theo Paphitis, who said Devey “left [them] with some fantastic memories, may she rest in peace.”
Duncan Bannatyne tweeted he was sad to hear of her passing, noting that Devey had died “too young,” and Deborah Meaden, who described her as “unique in every way,” adding that she “brought grit and warmth with her into the den.
Devey featured in numerous television programmes, which includes Secret Millionaire in 2008, in which she donated more than £70,000 to the Syke Community Centre in Rochdale and the Back Door Music Project.
Devey made her fortune launching Pall-Ex, a palletised freight network in 1996, the third palletised goods distribution network to be launched in the UK.
It was based on the well-established hub-and-spoke express parcels distribution model: this form of pallet network was pioneered by Palletline in 1992.
Pall-Ex handles around 8,000 palletised consignments through its Leicestershire hub each day, has over 90 network members and has annual revenues of £92 million.
