THE STORY OF TIMBERTROVE is a story of … …

two people, from ordinary backgrounds, who both left school early, mad keen to work, and who found they shared the same dreams of success. …

how they succeeded in achieving their dreams – through hard work, ongoing learning, a lot of help and a bit of luck. …

how they overcame two recessions – though the last one almost cost them everything – through sheer self-belief and determination. …

a small family business, with super, hard-working, loyal employees, that grew and retrenched – and grew again. …

the challenges of running a small business today – the day-in, day-out grind, the obstacles and hassles. …

the joy of running a small business today – meeting and serving customers, freedom in decision-making, seeing the direct results of your efforts. …

a family of entrepreneurs, beginning again now in the third-generation. Most of all, it’s the story of Shirley and Henry, of their family, of O’Kelly’s Sawmills and Timbertrove, of up and downs, good times and bad.

Shirley says: “Our story – the story of Timbertrove – is quite simple: we followed our dream in setting up and running a successful business, while achieving our goals along the way. We have walked the talk! We built the business from the ground up with very little money, just a dream!”
