Our Director and Senior Technician, Mark Porter, was born in Proserpine and commenced his electrical apprenticeship as a young teenager. In 1998 he moved away for a few years and married Kim before starting their beautiful family. Mark returned to the area in 2007 with Kim in time for their third son to be born in the March. Their children attended the local state schools and are growing into kind, compassionate and good young men, now aged 20, 19 and 15.
In 2007, Mark and Kim started a partnership providing electrical, air conditioing, refrigeration and appliance repair. The appliance repair became the largest component of their business for all the major appliance brands and they fast became Whitsunday’s largest warranty appliance repair agent.
They redirected their business in 2015 growing into a family owned company called ‘Hummingbird Refrigeration, Electrical & Air Conditioning‘. From here they transitioned away from appliance repair and directed their energies toward the electrical, air conditioning and refrigeration side of the business.
At Hummingbird Refrigeration, Electrical & Air Condition our mission is to run a business that is not just about making profits, but one that allows each team member as individuals and the business overall to participate in the local community.
Whilst continuing to grow strong we are on a path to creating bigger ripples with a 90 degree impact. That is, we know that based on the general principle of precession every action impacts another and we hope to do that in a positive way. So why not do what we do with kindness, integrity and determination.
90 Degrees, always!
