Stuck on what to give as a corporate gift this year? Why not donate to a local charity or organisation on someone's behalf. This is an easy and impactful way to give back to our community and raise awareness of the great organisations we have in the Territory! Or you can give someone the gift of a PRBA membership 😉

We're proud to have donated over $22,000 to our chosen charities and not for profit organisations throughout 2024 with the help of our members. We look forward to continuing this support in the new year and hope you do too.

CJD Equipment celebrated its 50th anniversary this year, marking decades of growth and innovation in the Australian machinery and transport sectors. Founded in 1974 by Ron Rafferty and Rob Jowett in Western Australia with only 28 employees, CJD now employs nearly 600 across 23 locations.

In the Northern Territory, where the company has been operating since 2013, CJD has branches in Yarrawonga in Palmerston and Alice Springs. It employs 48 people, including seven apprentices.

CJD's mantra, “big enough to trust, small enough to care,” highlights its commitment to exceptional customer service. As the business celebrates another milestone, Ron Rafferty attributes its success to its dedicated people and long-standing relationships.

“Our ‘can-do’ attitude and commitment to exceptional customer service has been key to our growth. We owe much of our success to the loyalty and drive of our people.”
