teve Murphy established the business some thirty five years ago operating one log truck carting for local sawmills.
Opportunity to grow the business saw the one truck operation steadily expand over the years to its present size, being the largest transport business carting logs and woodchip in Canterbury. Chris Murphy, Steve’s son joined the company in 1993 progressing from driving through all aspects of the business to his present role as General Manager and is also a 50% shareholder in the company.
The company depot situated on Main North Road, Kaiapoi has offices and purpose built workshop where all vehicles are maintained serviced and cleaned. Administration, dispatch and general management of day to day business is also on this site which provides good vehicle storage and excellent access North and South via State Highway One.

Cosgroves began in the year 2000, inspired by a Bank Manager friend who perceived Mark’s attention-to-detail and attention-to-people as a good fit for insurance. The timing was right, and with training and support from an industry mentor, Mark launched his own business in Christchurch’s CBD. Cosgrove Survival Specialists was born.
From small beginnings, the business grew progressively, not through advertising or ‘hard-sell’ but through good old-fashioned ‘word of mouth’ and hard work. Many successful referrals, together with the acquisition of a second brokering business in 2009 have led to further expansion. Today, with the support of three skilled administration staff, Cosgroves operates on the outskirts of Christchurch in a rural setting the team finds both relaxing and conducive to high productivity. A move initially brought about by the Canterbury earthquakes in 2011, the purpose-built offices and surrounding 11 acres are far removed from the ‘war zone’ that was once the city’s CBD. It’s from here that the Cosgroves team focusses on highly professional, individualised, and well thought out cover for their clients.
Cosgroves’ specialist focus is on business and farming. Ninety percent of the client-base are business owners; fifty percent of these are farmers. Clients are spread throughout the South Island; many coming as referrals via accountants and lawyers who rely on Cosgroves in-depth understanding of the diverse insurance needs of these clients. As an impartial consultancy firm, Cosgroves tailors an individualised plan to best protect business owners both professionally and personally.

Following the House of God document (below) a more substantial publication has been released responding to the request of many parishioners for more formation, detail and direction.
It will be most usefully read in conjunction with The House of God document.
