But what really is the success story is the people that it’s helped along the way, to make them more successful.

"Sean Carren's my name and I'm Managing Director of Goldstar Transport. We started this business 20 years ago with one truck, and now we've got over 430 people employed and over 500 pieces of licensed equipment on the road, and Capricorn's been a key part of our success story over the last 20 years.

We first heard of Capricorn in 1995 and back then it was really good support for a small business, a small mechanical workshop, which we were similar to at the time, and then to watch it evolve to where it is now, you know, 50 years on, you know, fantastic success story. But what really is the success story is the people that it's helped along the way, to make them more successful.

Our workshop wouldn't be where it is, our fleet maintenance program wouldn't be where it is without the help that Capricorn's provided.”

    Probably the best part for me is that the people that walk through the door, you know, your customer base Just to see those people come back year after year and then their families and see their families grow and it's a very family driven business
