Congratulations to Jayson, our 3rd year apprentice who took out 1st place by 1 point in Gato’s footy tipping competition this year.

Anyone who predicted what happened this year deserves an award 😂

Great work Jayson.

Alliance Construction Group, Site Visit.

We recently caught up with Peter Hodson, Project Manager at ACG, on site at their Kempsey Waste Management Project.

The team is deep into the build already, with completion not expected until well into 2027.

Gato has worked with Peter and the ACG team for years now. They run an all-Kobelco fleet and it’s a relationship we’re proud of.

Thanks to Peter and the team for showing us around and letting us see the machines in action.
