A History of Excellence in Architectural Metalwork

The company was established by brothers Tom and Albert Stoddart who shared a healthy competitiveness in all aspects of life. Originally from Newcastle England, the two migrated to Australia and in the 1950's they both landed successful positions in the engineering industry.

Tom launched his own manufacturing business in 1959 called Tom Stoddart Pty Ltd, with the tentative help of Albert's accounting guidance. Albert officially joined Tom and became part of the family company in 1964. By this time, Stoddart had two factories: a 1,000m2 building on Clarence St, Coorparoo and a 600m2 shed built in 1961.

Stoddart Today and Tomorrow

Today, the company the two brothers started continues to make headlines in the building industry as one of the leaders in manufacturing custom metal work products. Stoddart has 415 employees nationwide, including 32 apprentices across a variety of trades and have warehouse distribution spaces in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth as well as representation in Adelaide in addition to their Karawatha manufacturing and distribution facility.
