Introducing Centrals
Established in 1978, in the small town of Morawa, Western Australia, the Patterson family started hiring earthmoving equipment, as a complimentary service to their existing farming business.
In 1985, the Patterson’s acquired a Geraldton based earthmoving business, and subsequently renamed the company Central Earthmoving, to better represent the company’s core service offering.
What started with eight pieces of equipment and 11 employees, has now grown to a business with an annual turnover in excess of $100 million and employing 180 direct employees.
