Fox Coffey grew out of a translation office that Roy Fox, a familiar name in Vienna’s English-language world, set up in 1988. What began as one person’s practice became a firm with a particular character, and it has kept that character ever since. We have never been a conventional translation agency. At the heart of the firm is a small in-house team of English specialists, each with their own fields, who do the work themselves rather than passing it down a chain.

For more than three decades, Austrian companies and institutions have come to us for the English they cannot afford to get wrong, and stayed because the same people were still there the next year, and the year after that. In a business now full of platforms and volume, that continuity is rarer than it used to be, and worth more.
