MIDWAY CONCRETE & GARDEN SUPPLIES

A specialist in concrete, garden and building supplies, Midway is a family owned company servicing the northern, western and inner suburbs of Melbourne for the past 35 years. Starting out as a small mini mix and garden supplies business, Midway is now known as a one-stop-shop for all concrete accessories, tools and garden supplies. With three plant locations in Melton, South Morang and Laverton North which is home to the largest concrete display in Victoria constructed on a 20,000 square metre land.

To date, Midway Concrete own three Hitachi wheel Loaders, with the recent purchase of a fourth Hitachi ZW140-5 wheel loader to add to their orange construction family. The Hitachi ZW140-5 features an engine power of 113kW, an industry first 5 speed transmission, ease of control, high maintainability and operator comfort which boosts efficiency on any given job site.

Midway owner David Boxshall’s first Hitachi purchase was made 15 years ago with plans to ‘update their other branded machines to the Hitachi brand due to the reliability of the machines, exceptional customer service and credits his long-term relationship with Hitachi’s National Used Equipment Manager Cameron Taylor’ further adding that dealing with the Hitachi team is always easy.



The machines have contributed to the business' success.

As a company who will not comprise on quality, David believes the reliability and performance of the machines have contributed to the success of Midway Concrete and Garden Supplies. Machines owned by Midway operate consistently around the clock; 80 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, so reliability and performance of the machines are at the forefront of their business requirement. The previous Hitachi machine that Midway purchased did 9000 hours in 3 years with no major breakdown, so the team at Midway have full confidence in the Hitachi product.

Striving to meet customer satisfaction and go the extra mile; Midway offers experienced contractors to carry out the work, expert advice and are in business 6 days a week across all their locations. Midway Concrete is a community focused business, who have taken a special interest in sponsoring children charities such as ‘Variety The Children’s Charity’ for the past 12 years along with local sporting groups.

We went for the scariest costume we could think of…🐾

Don’t worry, it’s just for Halloween.
We are excited to announce a significant milestone in our company’s journey. 

For over 75 years, we have proudly served the construction and mining sectors, delivering reliable machinery, engineering excellence, and building lasting partnerships around the globe. 

The construction and mining industries are entering a new era. The world demands faster, smarter, and more sustainable approaches to developing critical infrastructure and mining operations. All the while with fewer skilled operators, lower costs, and tighter deadlines. In this context, Hitachi Construction Machinery has chosen to reinvent itself, standing side by side with its customers and distribution partners to lead this transformation together. 

 As part of our ongoing evolution, Hitachi Construction Machinery will transition to our new company name – LANDCROS Corporation, effective April 2027. 

This global rebrand signals the next phase of our company’s growth and commitment to our customers. 

Evolving with purpose. Built on trust. 

LANDCROS will continue as a Japanese company, with the heart of our research, development and manufacturing based in Japan. We retain all our existing capabilities across the globe and are set to strengthen them further by accelerating innovation, developing new technologies, and expanding our collaboration with key partners worldwide. 

Our future name change marks our next chapter, but our focus remains where it’s always been — with you, our customers. 

To our valued customers in Oceania and around the globe, rest assured that the people, products, support networks, and supply chains you depend on will remain unchanged. You can continue to rely on your current support team, branch network, and account representatives, all of whom will operate as usual.
