Unita

What Unita does

Unita is an Australian commercial interior fitout and construction company that delivers end-to-end fitout, refurbishment, construction, and repositioning services across retail, hospitality, gym and wellness, medical, office, hotel, entertainment, education, and automotive sectors. The company's core technology footprint centres on an in-house joinery manufacturing capability — 1,400m2 of dedicated production space supporting quality control, lead-time management, and procurement integration — combined with a collaborative design-and-build methodology that brings construction insight into the design phase to ensure buildability and budget alignment. Unita serves major enterprise brands with single-site flagship projects as well as multi-site national rollout programs (e.g., Revo Fitness 30+ locations, Harli + Harpa 10 stores, Uniqlo multiple sites), and operates as a direct B2B fitout contractor with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Gold Coast, and Adelaide.

The business model is project-based professional services: revenue is generated via quote-driven fitout and construction contracts priced per project, with no publicly disclosed rate cards or subscription-style pricing. GTM is enterprise field sales — direct engagement with major brands, property developers, architects, and interior designers — supplemented by long-standing design partnerships with firms such as Collectivus, In Addition, Cayas & Ward, Your Studio, Luchetti Krelle, and Interious. Unita is privately held under Unita Group Holdings Pty Ltd (ACN 622 274 006), founder-led by Robert Rowe with Matt Lane as CEO, with no external venture capital, private equity, or institutional investor involvement evidenced. The company has 20+ years of operating history and 5,000+ completed projects, including recent wins such as the 4,500m2 UNIQLO Emporium Melbourne flagship, the 4,600m2 TotalFusion Chermside wellness build, and Saint Haven Collingwood (winner of the 2025 Interior Fitout Association Award, Best Health Services Interior Fitout Over $2.5 million).
