ABOUT US
40 YEARS IN THE MAKING...
Our business has been built over 40 years of family graft and dedication. We are very proud of our northern roots and believe that this is reflected in our work ethic, our commitment to customer service and innovation.
What started as a milk delivery business in the Whitefield and Prestwich area has grown to being a leading software house for the food sector, and the history and provenance of our brand is what we believe sets us apart from our competitors.
OUR HISTORY
MILLARD BROS DAIRYMEN
Following a family bereavement, Harvey and Geoff Millard took on the family dairy business and built up a successful milk delivery network across the North West.
Technology was becoming more prevalent in industry, yet Geoff found that there was a lack of accessible and affordable software solutions for milkmen – and from there, Dairydata was born with the introduction of a simple yet innovative record keeping and billing system specifically for the dairy industry.
BORSDANE WOOD
Borsdane Wood was principally formed by Geoff’s son Chris who was perfectly placed to understand the needs of the dairy industry having helped for many years on the family milk rounds.
It was clear that Chris’ talents lay more in the technology side as he got more involved with developing the office systems for the business. Now a highly experienced programming consultant, Chris was responsible for creating and introducing the Paragon Dairy Management System, one of the UK’s only fully formed solutions for the dairy delivery sector.
The team have now expanded to include a number of expert developers and support to ensure the smooth operation of the business.

THE NEXT CHAPTER
In 2018 George, Geoff’s middle son joined the business to take over the helm as Sales Director. Having previously owned his own milk rounds, George is perfectly placed in his role touring the country demonstrating the value that the Paragon Dairydata Rounds Management System can offer to food service businesses.
In late 2019 the family recognised that with the growth and expansion of their services and the future trajectory of the business they needed to re-think their branding and online presence. Having enlisted the support of Pamela and her team at Worsley Creative Services, the new look and feel for Delivery Software limited launched in the beginning of 2020
