Grolife Landscape Management

What Grolife Landscape Management does

Grolife Landscape Management is a Queensland-based commercial grounds management contractor founded in 2016 by Cameron Stacey. The company delivers programmed grounds maintenance, sports turf management, tree care, irrigation, fertilisation, and garden design and construction for commercial, retail, industrial, and premium residential properties. Operations span South East Queensland plus regional Queensland depots in Townsville, Mackay, and Cairns, with the Grolife Group umbrella covering three sub-brands.

Service delivery is built around a battery-electric fleet (~80% converted via the Kress Commercial partnership), proprietary job-management software that captures GPS and photographic evidence per visit, and specialty equipment such as the Ventrac multi-use tractor (first Australian operator) and the Kress Voyager autonomous mower. The business model is anchored in multi-year (typically three-year) programmed maintenance contracts across 200+ active sites, complemented by project-based revenue from construction, irrigation installs, and tree work. Reported 98% customer retention and concentration of work through tier-one commercial real estate services firms (CBRE, Colliers, Charter Hall, Knight Frank, Savills, JLL, and others) indicate a relationship-driven, recurring-revenue model.

Strategic posture emphasises equipment electrification, operational documentation, and internal career progression from apprentice to leadership, supporting geographic scaling into New South Wales and Victoria by 2030. Management has signaled continued reinvestment in automation (autonomous mowing) and leadership depth (Lachlan Van Der Horn as part-owner) consistent with multi-state commercial landscaping roll-up ambitions.
