Welcome to the latest issue of Construction Source Australia, the magazine that highlights the best in building and building products across the country. In this edition, we have taken a look at a variety of building industry providers with offices and service areas all across Australia. The company on our cover, AVID Property Group, is one of the country’s largest and most industry-recognized residential builder-developers. Under their ‘Villaworld Homes’ banner, they create contemporary, award winning residential communities across the eastern seaboard of Australia. In our conversation with Peter Wood, AVID’s General Manager for Housing, we talked about the long history of the Villa World brand and what’s powered their enduring success. We also discussed some of the brand’s recent industry recognition – most notably, at the 2024 HIA-CSR Australian Housing Awards, Villaworld Homes by AVID received the ‘Professional Major Builder Award’, a pinnacle accolade that Peter likens to “climbing one of the top five mountains in the world.” Also featured in this issue are Connekt Plumbing – a quality focused plumbing contracting business that services Adelaide and regional areas of South Australia – and MKM Building Group – an innovative commercial and industrial builder based in Ballarat, Victoria. We spoke to the leaders of both companies about their long histories in their respective industries, and about how they have built reputations for taking on projects that are complex and technically-demanding. We also discussed their visions for the future – both companies have big plans for growth, with Connekt Plumbing aiming to be one of the top three plumbing contractors in South Australia within five years, and the leading contractor in the region within a decade. For those stories – and many more like them, about other award-winning projects and fast-growing industry leaders – just keep reading. All the best, The Editorial Team We will keep adding business units that enhance our offering and separate us from our competition. “ ” Editor From The Dear Reader,
