Mendi Group

What Mendi Group does

Mendi Group, operating through Mendi Constructions Pty Ltd, is a Townsville-headquartered civil construction contractor founded in 1959 and controlled by the Doyle family as part of Doyle Group Holdings. The company self-executes integrated civil works across North Queensland including bulk earthworks, roadworks and pavements, sewer and water reticulation, stormwater drainage, public utilities installation (electrical, communications, gas), and site remediation and environmental rehabilitation. Supporting capabilities include an in-house diesel-fitting workshop and quarry and contract crushing operations, enabling material supply and equipment maintenance to be kept in-house across a typical 51-100 person headcount.

The business serves two primary customer segments on a competitive-tender basis: government bodies (local councils, Queensland state departments and agencies such as Stadiums Queensland, Port of Townsville and Economic Development Queensland, plus federal clients including the Department of Defence and the Office of the Federal Safety Commissioner), and private property developers (Stockland, Westera Partners, Living Gems, Oreana Developments, and several Townsville-based estate and industrial developers). Disclosed individual contract values range from under $0.5M for DRFA road re-sheeting works to $40M for tier-1 infrastructure projects such as NQ Stadium and $25.8M for the Port of Townsville East Port development.

Revenue is generated on a project-by-project, quote-driven basis through competitive tendering, with no publicly disclosed pricing, subscription, or recurring-revenue component. The GTM motion is sales-led and field-based, leveraging 65+ years of brand reputation, ISO 9001/14001/45001 plus Federal Safety Accreditation credentials, a 100% local procurement policy that retains spending in the North Queensland economy, and broad community sponsorship (North Queensland Cowboys, Townsville Fire WNBL, Blackhawks RLFC, Mendi 9's tournament, multiple charities). The company is not publicly listed, has no disclosed funding rounds, and does not report revenue.
