Leading heavy equipment attachment manufacturer, Digga Australia, has announced its acquisition of McCormack Industries Pty Ltd, also known as ‘The Front-End Loader People'.
McCormack Industries has been an influential name in Australian manufacturing since 1984. Located in Aubigny on the Queensland Darling Downs, McCormack Industries has grown from a small family-owned business into an industry leader focused on manufacturing quality and reliable agricultural and industrial attachments.
In a statement, Digga Australia said the acquisition of McCormack Industries is a strategic alignment of shared values and goals.
“Both the Digga Australia Group and McCormack Industries are rooted in a deep commitment to family, innovation, and delivering top-quality, Australian made products to our customers,” the company said.
“This union strengthens our ability to serve the Australian market with even greater efficiency and expertise.”
Following the acquisition, McCormack Industries and Digga Australia sales will run independently from one another ensuring that it’s business as usual for both brands.
McCormack Industries will still operate under the McCormack name, with no changes to their service and product offerings. Its products will continue to be manufactured out of its Aubigny factory with previous owner, Brendan McCormack, and his team staying on to continue to grow the brand.
“We are excited to welcome Brendan and the entire McCormack team into the Digga family,” said Digga Group CEO, Zoe Conde.
“We see this acquisition as a perfect fit for our business as an avid support of Australian Manufacturing. McCormack Industries has built a strong brand in the Agricultural & Industrial attachments space which is an area of products that Digga hasn’t has a strong focus on historically.
“With the addition of being a family owned and operated business with a 40 year history, we can relate to a number of the highs and lows that both businesses have faced over that period. We are excited to continue the McCormack legacy with the backing of the whole Digga Group”.
