The approximately 10,580sqm store is being constructed by Naylor Love and will bring huge benefits to the local community, says Ben. “I personally have family in Papamoa so I know they are excited to have this coming. Papamoa is a rapidly growing part of the area and there is not much amenity there at the moment so having this significant retail project will make a huge difference to those living there already and the large amounts of people moving there. We are excited to be a part of Papamoa’s growth.” Ashton Mitchell is a full-service architecture practice based in Auckland, delivering award-winning architectural, interior design and master-planning solutions across the country since 1993. “We bring the creative visions of our clients to life through thoughtful design and rigorous project delivery,” says Ben. “It’s about innovative design in the real world. We are focused on finding the sweet spot between good design, buildability and meeting budget requirements. “Strong client engagement is an integral part of our culture. This immersive partnership approach runs through every stage of every project we do. Our approach has really suited a project like this Mitre10 one.” He says the practice is proud of the store and looks forward to seeing the doors open to welcome customers in the spring. “It represents Mitre 10’s commitment to high-quality customer experiences as well as delivering value. It’s a modern and fresh approach, getting it future ready for the retail environment as it evolves.” “We bring the creative visions of our clients to life through thoughtful design and rigorous project delivery.” Ashton Mitchell - Naylor Love: Mitre MEGA 10 Turrell & Willmott Construction is playing a key role in the delivery of the Mitre 10 MEGA development in Papamoa, reinforcing its position as one of the Bay of Plenty’s established commercial contractors. Started in 2018, Jack Turrell and Joe Willmott have grown the company from a small carpentry operation into a well-established subcontractor delivering large-scale commercial projects alongside tier one builders. “We have built our reputation on attention to detail at scale, strong communication and the ability to deliver quality outcomes at scale,” explains Joe. “Our strength lies in our people, systems and ability to adapt under pressure.” The company’s work on the Mitre 10 MEGA project for Naylor Love will see it deliver both interior and exterior carpentry packages. The programme is tightly scheduled, requiring close coordination with the main contractor and ongoing adaptation on site. “The main challenge has been the timeframe, it’s a very tight programme and we’re all working closely together to deliver that for the client,” says Jack. “We’ve had to be lexible and come up with innovative methodologies on site to keep things moving while maintaining quality.” Joe adds that collaboration has been central to progress on the project. “It’s been really positive working with Naylor Love. Everyone is pulling in the same direction and that makes a big di erence on a job of this scale,” says Joe. Turrell & Willmott Construction has a core in-house team with trusted subcontractors as required, allowing lexibility across complex programmes. Both Joe and Jack act as construction directors leading commercial delivery and actively involved in driving project performance on site. “What sets us apart is our willingness to collaborate closely with clients and main contractors,” says Jack. “That combination of communication, planning and a skilled team is what allows us to deliver on complex builds.” The company’s previous work includes the GIB factory in Tauriko for Form Building and Developments, the Baypark to Bayfair Link Upgrade for CPB Contractors, and Te Kura O Te Paroa and Papamoa Primary for Watts and Hughes. It has also completed projects across Waiheke Island and the Coromandel, and continues to travel for the right opportunities. Although the focus is on commercial contracts it also works on residential builds and renovations. It also has expertise in interior it-outs and concrete works. Turrell & Willmott Construction is a SiteWise member and operates under Site Safe and MATES in Construction frameworks, re lecting a strong focus on health, safety and workforce wellbeing. Joe says the intention is steady growth while maintaining reputation. “We’ve built a strong name in the local area and have proven we’ve got the capability to deliver. The goal now is to keep growing without compromising on quality or reliability.” Turrell & Willmott Construction E: admin@turrellconstruction.com Ph: Jack - 021 080 87768 Joe - 027 241 7773 turrellandwillmott.com Professional Builders in the Bay of Plenty Building Excellence Get In Touch TURRELL &WILLMOTT CONSTRUCTION LTD
