Duncan Edge
Founder (1958-2024 In Memoriam)
Duncan was the heart and soul of DFI. Hard-working and deeply dedicated, he poured everything into building the company and was immensely proud of what he achieved. Respected across the industry, he was known for his willingness to go above and beyond to help others – whether they were colleagues, clients, or competitors.
Never one to shy away from a challenge, Duncan approached everything with fairness and directness. He wasn’t always level-headed, but his passion and integrity were undeniable. More than just a business, DFI was his legacy, and his values continue to shape everything we do today.
