For over 100 years, Newham Group has worked to service some of Australia’s leading industries. From its inception by founder Eric Newham, the company’s first operations began in transport - a humble horse and dray in rural NSW.
In the 1940’s Eric moved with his family to the Lithgow and expanded to coal transportation, bus services, general freight, mining operations and construction activities such as dams and pipelines.
From the 1980’s, the company expanded into property development, farming activities and hospitality. Newham Group owned the Tower Mill Hotel in Brisbane (now registered as a heritage building) and the Boat Harbour Motel in Wollongong. Resource Management Services followed, and so did a long-term partnership with the NSW Government to operate the Waste Management and Recycling centres across Sydney.
Allan Newham took up the reins supported by siblings and fellow Directors Barry and Ann during in the early 1970’s. Australia’s desire for cleaner, cheaper energy saw the huge expansion of the Natural Gas Industry from the 1970’s and the Newham Group became the “go to” home grown Australian Contactor during the construction and development of the National Pipeline Grid.
Barry’s son Mark became a Director of the business.
As Newham Group has grown, its focus on maintaining a strong family-orientated culture has never changed, and with Allan’s continued guidance the team have established themselves as a trustworthy, reliable and quality partner across multiple Australian industries.
As a multi-faceted business with experience in property development as well as resource management, mining, transport and construction, Newham Group has a holistic approach when it comes to providing quality services.
This reputation has seen the Newham Group involved in some of Australia’s most significant nationwide industrial and commercial projects. As a company with a strong legacy at its core, we take pride in being a trusted and reliable partner to our clients, instilling confidence that we will strive to deliver over and above their expectations.
Our approach is always carefully considered to ensure we not only provide exemplary service to our clients but stay committed to the values most important to us.
