Steve demands that the highest standards of ethics and integrity prevail at all times at DC Motors. The reputation of the business and the reputation of the employees are hard earned and must never be compromised.

DC Motors was purchased from Mr Neville Callaghan in 2006 and Steve is very conscious of the 47 year legacy of Mr Callaghan and the responsibility that exists to uphold the values that go with that legacy and to develop the business as a transformational business and one that grows and develops with the Region and realises on the potential that the Region and the industry will present in the years ahead.
