THE PJ’S Concrete Pumping business has recorded year-on-year growth since their establishment over 20 years ago, and the past 12 months has been no exception. 

2021 has seen the business add a ninth truck to their existing fleet, as well as their new operations manager, Gordon Hall and three new truck operators, with room to employ another two, said manager, Keelan Don. 

“One area of the business that has continued to see growth over the last year, has been the residential building sector, the development and demand for blocks is like nothing we’ve ever seen before,” Keelan commented. 

Family-owned and operated, the business services regional Victoria and Southern NSW with a combined staff of 17 and fleet of nine concrete pumps. 

Well maintained equipment operated by highly skilled, reliable and well-presented staff, has always been and continues to be paramount to PJ’s Concrete Pumping. Along with the commitment to continuous improvement, and their founding core value of integrity, to deliver a high standard service: That’s the PJ’s promise. 

It’s a promise and a service delivery model that’s earnt the team their superior reputation as one of the best in the business. 

Founder, Peter Don and wife, Rhonda, are extremely proud to now have the involvement of their children in the business, with son Keelan as manager and daughters Ashlin and Maddison both part of the administration team. 

For 62-year-old business owner Peter Don, the importance of maintaining their high standard of service delivery is more about customer satisfaction than building an empire. 

“I’ve always been far more interested in pleasing people than anything else, and it’s rewarding to know you have when you can see it on their faces,” he said. 

PJ’s is a business cultivated by a man, self-made in his success, that even in the shortest of conversations you gain a sense of why now more than 20 years on, the business is still growing and reaching new levels of success.
