Our Vision
Robbie Gale leads our dynamic group of companies, which spans quarry, asphalt and roading divisions, with a focus on compassion, innovation and excellence.
Our clear vision is to be a full service civil construction company that consistently delivers high quality outcomes for our clients, our people and the communities we serve. We are committed to combining professional expertise with practical, hands on experience to ensure every project is completed safely, efficiently and to the highest standards.
The purpose of our business goes beyond construction, it’s about making a meaningful difference across Te Matau a Māui, the East Coast and the central North Island. By investing in people, processes and local communities, we aim to build infrastructure that strengthens regions, supports growth and leaves a lasting, positive impact for future generations.
OUR PEOPLE, OUR COMMUNITY
We work hard to ensure our decision-making benefits our local community and our practices and processes reflect this. Our company values employing family members, reinforcing community ties and a supportive work environment. Their shared dedication enhances team dynamics, contributing to our company vision. Their experience and skills strengthen our service quality, reflecting the teamwork and loyalty they bring to our organisation.
Manaakitanga (showing respect, generosity and care) is our driving force. We’re passionately committed to caring for our workers, their whānau and our local communities which is reflected in our company name “Tūpore” which means “to care for”. We include Māori values, perspectives and beliefs in our company culture and feel proud of the natural use of Te Reo in our meetings and day to day business which is supported by our 80% Māori workforce. We take pride in our commitment to diversity and inclusion and understand the importance of respecting the unique needs, perspectives and potential of our workforce.
Social Impact
Profit share and the George Foundation
Each year we take a portion of our company profit and distribute it across the whole team at Christmas time. This reward scheme allows our employees to know that their hard mahi is contributing to the success of the company which benefits themselves, their whānau, workmates and community.
The George Foundation Charitable Trust is funded 100% by the Tūpore Group with 10% of company profits being donated to the Trust. The Trust uses this funding to support those in the community who need help the most.
