Tracing Our Roots: The Vision of Mr. Caleb Brett

The inception of Intertek Caleb Brett dates back to 1885, founded in Kent, England by Mr. Caleb Brett, a visionary farmer and entrepreneur. Understanding the necessity for an independent and impartial cargo inspection service to regulate cargo quality and mitigate business risks in global trade, Mr. Brett established a service dedicated to certifying the quality and quantity of grain cargoes prior to shipment.

Innovating Inspection Services for a Growing Global Market

During the early days of the petroleum industry, Mr. Caleb Brett expanded his business scope to include marine cargo inspection and testing for crude oil and refined petroleum products. As international trade in these commodities grew, so did Caleb Brett's company, evolving to offer inspection and laboratory services to a broadening international client base.
