Since 1980
Cretemix Mixed Concrete
Cretemix was founded in 1980 by Christopher Hicks. The company consisted of one ready-mix batching plant based in New Germany (Durban, South Africa) and had five Nissan ready-mix trucks.
In August 2005, Cretemix was bought by Doug Brown and Steve Norcott and a third partner, who has subsequently retired. Since 2005, Cretemix has expanded rapidly and grown from strength to strength.
Cretemix has a large fleet of trucks, which allows it to be more competitive in the service they offer as well as their pricing structures.
