Our Story

New Zealand's Foremost Construction Company

In 1946, Fred Hawkins and two mates sat in his garage and turned their passion into a business. One that would become New Zealand's foremost construction company, shaping New Zealand's skyline.

The Hawkins story is centred on its passionate people, some reaching fifty years of service, and underpinned by a quintessential Kiwi can-do attitude.
