Smart Solution Homes is not just a company; it's a reflection of Craig Kellington's journey and vision. Founded in June 2018 by Craig, this venture represents the culmination of his passion for innovation and efficiency in the construction industry.
Craig's story is one of transformation and relentless pursuit of excellence. After moving to New Zealand in 2008, he built M&K Projects Ltd into a thriving company of over 20 staff, only to sell it in early 2019. Driven by a desire to challenge the status quo, Craig ventured into the world of Offsite Manufacturing (OSM) with Smart Solution Homes, determined to revolutionize the construction process.
With a decade of experience in the renovation industry and a growing awareness of the housing crisis in New Zealand, Craig saw an opportunity to make a difference. Smart Solution Homes was born out of this vision, fuelled by a commitment to work smarter, not harder.
Craig's passion for systems and processes has been instrumental in the company's growth. Their streamlined processes enable them to scale up production as per demand, allowing them to build multiple houses every week. This flexibility is a testament to their commitment to efficiency and innovation, ensuring that they can meet the needs of their clients promptly and effectively.
But Craig's vision extends beyond mere business success. At Smart Solution Homes, he is driven by a deeper purpose: to provide high-quality, affordable housing solutions and make a positive impact on communities, both locally and globally.
Beyond the construction of homes, Craig's vision encompasses empowering individuals and families to achieve homeownership, providing opportunities for young people to gain valuable skills in the building trade.
Craig's journey with Smart Solution Homes is not just about building structures; it's about building a legacy of innovation, sustainability, and social responsibility. Join Craig and the Smart Solution Homes team on this transformative journey towards a brighter future for all.
