Southern Pumping Founder, Ben Wallace’s, journey epitomises the entrepreneurial spirit driving the company’s success. With a determination to conquer uncharted territories, Mr Wallace ventured into the pump industry armed solely with vision and resolve. This audacious leap paved the way for Southern Pumping’s remarkable ascent, expanding its footprint across the Illawarra and beyond to serve a burgeoning clientele.

A significant milestone in Southern Pumping’s trajectory was the strategic acquisition of Numbat – heralding the establishment of a formidable national wholesale network. This strategic manoeuvre not only fortified the company’s position but also facilitated the creation of bespoke products, solidifying its foothold in the market.

Southern Pumping’s commitment to nurturing local talent and fostering community growth remains unwavering. Through apprenticeships and traineeships, the company continues to cultivate a skilled workforce, bolstering regional prosperity and vitality.

In response to the evolving needs of Tier 1 and 2 contractors, Southern Pumping has embraced innovation and efficiency, streamlining its operations to navigate complex regulatory landscapes seamlessly. This proactive approach has positioned the company as a trusted ally in critical sectors such as mining, infrastructure, agriculture and construction.

As Southern Pumping commemorates its golden jubilee, it stands as a testament to resilience, adaptability and unwavering dedication. With a robust legacy of service excellence and a forward-looking ethos, the company is primed to chart new horizons, setting the stage for continued growth and impact in the years to come.
