After opening the first Skinners store in Maryborough in 1985, initially by George and Vona Skinner, the Maryborough store has been led by Jeff Wright and Matt Skinner for many years as a great team and best of mates. Jeff and Kerry, Matt and Sarah would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff past and present for their contribution to making Skinners the place it is today and for being part of their team. To our customers, we would like to thank you for your support over the past 27 years and to those whom have become part of the Skinners Building Materials family, we thank you for the laughs and the good times. Indi, Jeff’s dog and offsider, will certainly miss seeing you all around the yard! We have every faith that with the Prime’s leadership and the same dedicated staff, the store will continue to provide the same great service and products. We wish Jeff, Chloris, James and Leanne Prime and their families the greatest success into the future.
