34 | T Projects underway - page 36 DEVELOPMENT Safari Group Track record of success T from page 32 Located in the desirable inner-city suburb of Parnell, with easy access to some of Auckland’s most popular attractions, Augustus Park offers astute investment opportunities. Hardworking, forward thinking, continually going from strength to strength, have all become catch phrases over subsequent years. Laura says that Safari Group identifies and pursues development opportunities that meet or exceed a strict set of criteria, in order to benefit its customers through long-term value and uncompromising quality. Trust has been a major factor. With a 25- year track record of consistently delivering high quality product to clients, Safari Group has proven to be a trusted builder that deliv- ers on promises, time and time again, says Laura. Importantly Safari Group is a strongly family-oriented company with the founding partners both having sons actively working in the business. Robert’s son Kyle works in the construction side of the business and other son Liam is an assistant development manager. Stephen’s sons Damien and Simon are both company directors. Laura says this all adds up to one thing: passion. “You can really see the love of the business in the leadership. This also spreads to the wid- er team and creates a great company culture capable of delivering outstanding projects,” she says. “With the next generation joining the ranks and bringing a tremendous wealth of construction and development experience with them, we are very well positioned for the future.” Over the past quarter of a century the Group has evolved into a company that does more than develop buildings. It today controls all aspects of the development process, from acquisition and permitting through to sales, marketing and construction. Laura says that it is this comprehensively in- tegrated approach that guarantees all its pro- jects are effectively and efficiently managed, every step of the way. She says that Safari Group is energised and very well positioned for the future. “Safari Group has been built on a solid foundation of savvy construction, manage- ment experience and old-fashioned family values. “Our pursuit of excellent design and quality construction has remained a constant through the years, ensuring we always remain dedicated to delivering outstanding quality at an exceptional value. Ultimately all those at Safari Group are doing what they love and working very hard to create long term value for our clients.” Phone: 03 983 5500 waterfordpress.co.nz Your Business, Your Industry, Your News.
