Introduction to Company History

JC Mackersey Ltd was founded by John Charles Mackersey and commenced trading in 1948. John was elected National President of the New Zealand Master Builders Federation in 1961.

Since that date JC Mackersey Ltd continued to grow and expand leading to a full separation of property holdings from the construction operation in 1988.

JC Mackersey Ltd became the Property & Development Company now called Mackersey Development Ltd.

Mackersey Construction Ltd became the Building Company.

In 1989 John retired as Managing Director of JC Mackersey Ltd, but remained actively involved in the building business until he passed away in 2002. He and his company transformed the skyline of Hawkes Bay during his building career.

Mackersey Construction Ltd is a Registered Master Builder and is one of the largest construction companies in the Hawkes Bay carrying out all types of work from housing to major commercial buildings.

We have a strong commitment to the Hawkes Bay province and have contributed to its development and progress for over 50 years.
