CLIENT: Fonterra

Mosgiel
AREA
9000m²
Fonterra Cooperative Group Limited operates milk processing facilities across New Zealand and has sought to consolidate distribution systems in its southern New Zealand operations by constructing a new distribution centre in Mosgiel. Apollo managed the construction of the 9,000m² purpose built food grade cold storage facility at the site with special automated racking systems for the receipt and distribution of dairy products. This included complex sub-floor and panel systems that required the highest attention to detail to prevent excessive energy use and future operational problems. Apollo was responsible for all matters of the build including consenting, design, procurement of all materials and trades, and on site delivery of the project. Fonterra carries a very high standard of health and safety in the construction and operation of its facilities, and Apollo fully supported, endorsed and successfully implemented these policies.
We are a nationwide Design and Build company with specialist knowledge and experience across verticals as diverse as cold storage, dairy, wine, food and beverage processing, commercial and retail spaces, and recreation and leisure.
Whatever the project, our focus is simple - listen to our client and deliver absolute trust and certainty from the start.
At Apollo, we've never been afraid to challenge the status quo.
When Craig Waghorn and Paul Lloyd started Apollo in 2001, they were determined to break away from the traditional management process and do things differently. They saw an opportunity to partner with clients from the very start, taking their ideas right from concept all the way through to completion – something that was poorly executed in the industry!
Today, Apollo is a leading New Zealand design and construction company with over 40 professional project delivery and support staff across the country. We regularly work with major national companies including Fonterra, Goodman Fielder, George Weston Foods, Ngai Tahu and Lion Co., as well as private owner-operated businesses, sports organisations and Government/Council entities.
Even though Apollo has grown over eighteen years, we’ve never lost our core value that a ‘client’s trust is everything’. Apollo is different simply because we operate as a partner with our clients – our goal from the very beginning has always been to build strong relationships from which we can deliver successful projects.
