Built on strong foundations

Brown & Moodie was founded in 1947 in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs by James Brown and Jock Moodie. From those early days in Botany, the business quickly earned a reputation for quality work and a willingness to grow with its clients’ needs.

As the company evolved, the next generation stepped in. James’ son, Roger Brown, brought fresh energy and ambition, expanding into factories, sheet metal, and pipework manufacturing that laid the groundwork for a much larger operation. This determination to improve and grow both the business and it's cultures saw the introduction of new leaders to help steer the business forward with significant development stages - Ross Carswell through the 1970s and 1980s, and later Gregory Becker, who remains part of the leadership team today.

Each of these figures added their own strengths, shaping Brown & Moodie into a business built not just on technical skill, but on vision, partnerships, and long-term commitment. From a small local operation to a company with facilities across NSW and QLD, the spirit of innovation and challenge accepted attitude established in those early years continues to drive us forward.
