Today, we proudly mark two decades of resilience, hard work, and unwavering commitment. Running a family business isn't always easy—balancing personal relationships with professional responsibilities has its unique challenges. Yet, through every high and low, we've stayed true to our core values: building strong relationships, maintaining integrity, and delivering quality that stands the test of time.
Dad started everything and still is the boss, back when he and my mum were courting the little daihatsu jeep could be taking a detour to a site or machine before any dance was attended..His work ethics, calm demeanour, problem solving ability and professionalism are traits I try and emulate.
From the age of 9 my father has been a winner of his house and a fighter as my grandfather was left in a wheelchair after a farming accident and for the last 60 years he’s been up before larks and constantly on the go, involved in every aspect of business.
Before Belfry and after being out on his own he brought my uncle in and they formed Conway Brothers Ltd. A hugely successful business that successfully delivered some unique projects and some industry leading schemes.
In a family business you share all of life’s experiences; births, deaths and marriages and everything in between, and as a family the last number of years particularly have been a struggle. Some of you may know, our situation, and also dad’s diagnosis of stage 4 bowel cancer (which is absolutely fu***ng smashing it), but mum also was sick, and we are fortunate and forever grateful to the relationships we have built and the staff we have that are willing to shoulder that responsibility and treat our family as their own.
It's been a challenging but rewarding journey, made possible by our incredible staff, loyal customers, and supportive partners. Here's to 20 years of trust, growth, and the heartwarming sense of community that keeps us going.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being part of our story. Here's to many more years of success and togetherness!
