Company History
F W McDowall Ltd has been operating since 1953 and continues to operate
today as a family owned and operated business. The owners of the company
apply a "hands on" approach to the every day running of their business.
This allows an almost immediate reaction to any operational or
management issues that arise on a day to day basis, giving the company
stability in an ever changing environment.
F W McDowall Ltd is comprised of four operating companies; McDowall
Southland Ltd, a full service rural transport company which also
provides agricultural contracting services. McDowall Excavating, for
specialist excavation needs. McCormick Transport Ltd, a full service
rural transport operator in Ashburton. McDowall Freight Ltd, a
nationwide express freight operator.
McDowall Southland based in Winton, in conjunction with McDowall
Excavating, based in Browns, is well placed to provide our farming
clients with a full range or services.
