On 1st January 2019 GDF Australia PTY LTD was born and Mr Phillip Andrew Hayes was appointed Managing Director and is part owner of GDF Australia PTY LTD and in a short period of time GDF Australia has gone from strength to strength in a difficult market and has proven itself to be a premier brand in the Australian Market.
