What Almighty Industries does

Almighty Industries is a privately held, family-owned Australian heavy-vehicle body builder and HIAB crane agent headquartered in Orange, New South Wales. Founded in 2003 by Todd Raffen, the company designs, manufactures, installs, and maintains custom truck, trailer, and light commercial vehicle bodies for fleet operators across Australia, with a stated throughput of approximately 25 new builds per month. Its product portfolio spans tippers, crane trucks, mine-spec service trucks, beavertails, curtainside bodies, pantechs, service bodies, tabletop trays, tilt trays, trailers, and customised utes, all fabricated in-house using 100% Australian Bluescope steel. The company also holds exclusive Australian agency for HIAB loader cranes, supplying, installing, and servicing the equipment nationally from its Orange head office through a field service crew network.

The business serves enterprise and government customers in mining (Komatsu, BHP, WesTrac, Weir Minerals), civil and infrastructure (Downer Group, Coates Hire), government and transport (Sydney Trains, Transport NSW, RMS, SES, Orange City Council, Parkes Shire Council), rail, emergency services, agriculture (Hutcheon & Pearce, GrainCorp), and logistics (Grants Express). GTM is direct enterprise field sales supported by a website, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram presence, with bespoke quote-based pricing on multi-year fleet contracts. Almighty Industries' technology stack centres on conventional metal fabrication — welding, cutting, and precision machining — combined with HIAB crane integration and a partner ecosystem spanning Mega Pacific (hydraulics), Hydraulink (hoses and fittings), GB Auto (auto-electrical), and Bluescope Steel.

Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time custom vehicle body manufacturing sales, hardware supply of HIAB cranes, and recurring maintenance and service contracts delivered either in-house or via the national service crew network. The company does not disclose revenue and operates with no external investment or parent ownership; it remains under the direct control of founders Todd and Jenny Raffen alongside a workforce of approximately 55 full-time staff.
