Customer Spotlight: Hillery Group - Building Success Through Local Partnership

From quarrying to civil construction, Hillery Group have built their family business into one of the Whitsundays’ leading local success stories. Proudly family-owned and community-focused, their operations span across the region - delivering high-quality civil projects and managing multiple quarries.

Partnership in Action

As Hillery Group’s Director of Strategy, IT and Warehousing, Lachlan plays a key role in managing inventory and rationalising their supply catalogue. He explains that AJP Industrial Supplies has been instrumental in supporting that process - from safety and environmental products to consumables and workwear.

"AJP has been really helpful... allowing us to work through the various categories of inventory we carry, from safety through to environmental and even all of the consumables that our guys use on site. They've always been really timely in providing us quotes and all the information, even sourcing some of those harder to find items we need to keep our people safe and compliant," says Lachlan.

Service That Delivers

Hillery Group rely on AJP not just for products, but for service that fits the pace of their projects. Whether it’s timely delivery, local availability, or quick communication, the partnership is built on trust and responsiveness.

"Kacey has really helped me in many aspects of my role," Lachlan adds. "She's always been available for a call or email, and she's handled some big requests for quotes and she's always come back and delivered as well."

Backing Local, Building Value

For Hillery Group, supporting local suppliers is an easy choice - and one that continues to pay off.

"It’s not just about price - it’s about the value we get as a business, and AJP have really delivered on that for us," Lachlan shares.

The collaboration between Hillery Group and AJP reflects what’s possible when regional businesses back each other - local expertise, strong communication, and real results.
