Eureka Concrete in Ballarat has struck gold, recently collecting a bright yellow FYJ 300-350 Auto concrete agitator to add to its burgeoning fleet.
Providing services in Ballarat, Ballan, Beaufort and Maryborough for over 50 years, the family-run business has four concrete plants alongside a quarry in Amphitheatre.
“Back when Dad [Graeme Beaston] first started the business 52 years ago, he had two concrete trucks and a front-end loader,” explained Eureka Concrete Manager, Troy Beaston.
“I’ve been here for over 30 years with my three brothers also working for the business.
“We now run around 45 concrete trucks plus a few tippers as well.”
The foundations for the working relationship between Ballarat’s biggest concrete supplier and one of the region’s busiest truck dealerships were cemented some time ago.
With their new Isuzu FYJ Agitator on hand, Eureka provided a substantial quantity of concrete for the build of Ballarat Isuzu’s new dealership in Mitchell Park.
“Eureka Concrete enjoys looking after the local community and businesses in Ballarat, providing high quality service and support,” Troy said.
“We have a connection with Ian Deacon, Chris Todd, Jason Homberg and the team at Ballarat Isuzu. We’ve known them for a long time and we’re glad to do business with them.”
While Eureka Concrete can be found delivering concrete for government projects, commercial projects and domestic builds, they also provide for clients from display homes, industrial sites and wind farms through to local mining operations.
Trucks in Eureka’s fleet such as their new FYJ Auto Agitator will take on five to six loads per day on average, with busy days jumping up to as many as 10 loads. This is prevalent on “the sunny days, which are always busy,” according to Troy.
“Eureka’s new FYJ Agitator would probably travel up to 200 or 300 kilometres a day and be in operation for up to 10 hours,” he added.
