Sco-op

February 2025

Dear Members, Suppliers, Directors, and Team,

There are no words that can truly express the depth of gratitude we owe to the volunteers who put their lives and livelihoods on hold to fight these relentless fires. Nor can we fully repay the businesses and individuals who generously donate their time, food, and resources to keep these crews going. But what we can do is say thank you – from the bottom of our hearts.

Fires continue to take a toll across our state, and this season has been especially challenging. The lack of moisture in the ground has made conditions even more volatile, allowing fires to take hold more aggressively than in previous years. While we are all weary of these ongoing threats, we are also deeply appreciative of the unwavering efforts of those who step up in the face of danger to protect people, property, and livestock.

To every volunteer firefighter, emergency responder, and supporter working tirelessly behind the scenes – your dedication does not go unnoticed. Your courage and generosity are the backbone of our communities.

On behalf of EOPP and the wider community, thank you for everything you do.

Spotlight On Esperance Metaland and Stewarts Engineering

This month, our Supplier Spotlight highlights Esperance Metaland and Stewarts Engineering, two proudly local businesses that have become integral to the Esperance community. Led by Tim Stewart, whose knowledge and commitment have been key to their growth, these companies have become vital contributors to the region’s industrial sector. From their modest beginnings to their current success, Esperance Metaland and Stewarts Engineering continue to serve both local industries and the everyday needs of Esperance residents.

Stewarts Engineering has been a trusted name for over 35 years, specialising in welding, fabrication, sheet metal work, sandblasting, and industrial painting. With a reputation for precision and reliability, the business has played a vital role in supporting the local community. In 2017, Tim revitalised Esperance Metaland, formerly Midalia Steel, with a vision to restore choice for local industries. Under his leadership, the business has grown into a key player in the region’s steel supply chain, providing high-quality materials for agriculture, construction, and beyond.

No job is too big or too small. Whether working on large-scale industrial projects or assisting with smaller, specialised tasks, the team is committed to delivering top-tier results. Tim’s extensive knowledge and mentorship have fuelled the success of both businesses, ensuring high-quality service and expertise. Esperance Metaland and Stewarts Engineering remain dedicated to meeting the diverse needs of the Esperance community, offering reliable steel supplies, fabrication, welding, and sandblasting services. Their reputation for excellence, affordability, and customer service speaks for itself.
