We are excited to have many Coffs Coast-based contractors working with the project team on this exciting project.

Here are some Questions and Answers so the Coffs Coast residents can learn more about the businesses (and the people behind them) contracted to work on ‘The Coffs Coast Regional Sports Hub: Stage 2’ project.

Q. What does your business do and what is your involvement in The Coffs Coast Regional Sports Hub Project: Stage 2?

A. We are concrete sub-contractors. We constructed the new concrete paths linking the stadium to Hogbin Drive and surrounds, We are currently in the process of building the new Amenities block on Leisure Park 1 & 2 with Lianda Constructions.

Q. When will we see you/your team onsite, and how many people will you have working on the project?

A. Both projects are almost complete, and we have 15 workers on site.

A. Very local. Farlows started as a one man operation back in 1952 (68 years ago) when Fred Farlow commenced concreting works in the Coffs Harbour district. We have expanded over the years employing up to 30 staff working on projects from the Hunter region in the South, North to the Queensland border, and inland to Tamworth and Moree.
