J H Williams & Sons

As the business started to grow and create momentum, his daughter quid and son Harry joined the company. With the beginning of World War 2, Harry joined the AF and temporarily left the business to be run by his father (James), sister (quid) and younger brother Earle. On return from his service behind the war, Harry with his brother Earle gradually took over the company from their father and in 1953 DH Williams Sons Pt Ltd was brought to life. Progressively the company expanded but has never strayed from the original concept of being a family business occupied for the community with integrity and honesty. In 1970 Earle’s son Bruce joined the company and started active with Harry in the agricultural side of the business. In 1986 the company sold the produce and rural divisions and later the fuel supply divisions to focus on the core business of supply to the building industry. This focus allowed the business to exaggerate through aquistion of building supply stores at South port, Casino, Lismore, (now Goonellabah) and balling.
