TREELINE Design prides itself on its strong social conscience.
The firm hires local staff, gives back to the community through charities and sponsorship and provides state-of-the-art drafting services.
Not to mention its focus on sustainability.
Treeline provides drafting services for minor projects like pergolas, carports and hay sheds as well as town planning applications.
The business has evolved from its inception as a part-time single operator home-based business in 2003 to a full-time home business in 2006.
Further growth came when Kevin Beasley’s wife Jennifer joined the business in 2005.
In 2008 Treeline moved into an office space, and became incorporated.
Jennifer said that the service base of Treeline had broadened to not only encompass Cardinia Shire but also Baw Baw Shire and Bass Coast Shire.
“Our customer base has also increased with a 25.95 per cent turnover growth in sales alone this year,” she said.
“In these tough economic times it is a true indication of our commitment to quality service and excellent customer interactions.”
With the increase in business, Treeline has increased its staff accordingly.
“We believe in getting back to the community,” Jennifer said.
“As part of that we hire local staff, we now have four full-timers and one part-timer.”
She said their commitment to the local community was evident in their sponsorship of the Cardinia Piranhas, Cardinia Foundation and local charities.
