I remember this company, mainly from the 1970s, at that time they had a contract with Sainsbury’s picking-up & delivering to their shops. I also think they had a depot in Hoddesdon in the 70s? The picture with the plane would probably have been them picking-up Veg for Sainsbury.?

Hello, I used to live in Whites Grounds estate with mum, dad and my 2 brothers and the front of our flat looked onto SIMS yard where they used to keep all their lorries. This was back in the 50's/ 60's.

Looking across Winchester Square from Clink Street. The white sign of J O Sims Ltd remains as does the firm.
