In 2024, Skyreach marks a significant milestone as it celebrates 30 years of excellence in the Hire and Rental Industry. Established in May 1994 by the visionary CEO and Managing Director, Rod Leech, Skyreach has evolved from its humble beginnings in Geebung, Queensland, to become a prominent player on Australia’s East Coast. Rod recalls “starting the business thirty years ago, it was all about doing a bit of everything – finding customers and allocating machines throughout the day to finishing at night writing manual invoices by hand!”
The journey of Skyreach is one of continuous growth and innovation. Relocating its head office in February 2006 was a pivotal moment, enabling the company to expand its fleet and staff capacity significantly. This move provided ample space for a burgeoning fleet, state-of-the-art facilities for efficient fleet management, and an enhanced infrastructure for human resource management.
Over the years, Skyreach has played a pivotal role in numerous landmark projects across the country. From supplying machinery to blockbuster movie and television productions such as Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The Matrix, to supporting critical military endeavors and industrial ventures, Skyreach has been a trusted partner in driving success across diverse sectors.
In 2016, Skyreach joined forces with Nishio, a renowned Japanese Rental Hire Company. This strategic alliance catapulted Skyreach to become the 8th largest trader in the national and international hire and rental industry, marking a significant milestone in its journey.
