INVEST IN TASMANIA'S EARTHMOVING INDUSTRY

Sutcliffe Earthmoving specialise in the provision of Hourly Plant Hire with Operator, Demolition Services and Landscape Products across Tasmania.

Sutcliffe Earthmoving’s reputation for outstanding customer service is evidenced in their Sales Turnover growing in excess of $7.5m in 2011, together with excellent Net Profit Margins recorded between the years 2008 and 2011. Supporting this, Sutcliffe’s 21 largest customer accounts have an average age of 10 years.

After many years servicing Tasrail, in March 2011 Sutcliffe Earthmoving won the opportunity to be appointed to the ‘Tasrail Contractor Panel’ to maintain Tasrail’s Southern and Western Lines for a 3 year term, with one other contractor. Tasrail is now Sutcliffe’s single largest customer requiring a dedicated Account Manager and 2 Crews.

For the past 25 years Sutcliffe Earthmoving has been owned by Paul and Denise Sutcliffe. Always focusing on the continuous improvement of their staff with the development of systems and processes, Paul and Denise have also remained conscious of the need to reinvest and expand their fleet of Plant and Equipment in sync with their customers’ requirements. From 2010 to 2011 this CAPEX exceeded $1.7m.

Sutcliffe Earthmoving employed 38 staff in 2011. Their Office and Depot is conveniently located at 63 Crooked Billet Drive, Brighton, within the Brighton Transport Rail Hub Precinct. The Office and Depot is available either for lease or sale, with the purchase of the business.
