ABN Group (formerly Alcock Brown-Neaves Group) is a private diversified building, property and finance group comprising 22 companies based in Perth, Western Australia and Melbourne, Victoria.[1][2] The ABN Group has built more than 62,000 homes nationally, since the Group was first established in 1978. Initially building only a few homes every year, the group is now ranked the 2nd largest builder in Australia with 4,608 housing starts across Western Australia and Victoria in 2014/15.[3]


History

The group was established in 1978 by ABN Group's non-executive director Garry Brown-Neaves, who started out as a bricklayer before forming his own company Webb & Brown-Neaves with business partner John Webb. Dale Alcock, who also started his career as bricklayer, joined the company as a two-way operator in 1983. A second building company, Dale Alcock Homes, was established in 1987. Dale Alcock was later brought in as partner and ABN Group Managing Director, when John Webb retired two years later.[4] In 2008, Damien Eves became the ABN Group's first CEO and the Group successfully expanded into the Melbourne market where a year later Aidan Hooper was appointed managing director.
