History
[edit]Mills-Tui was established in 1999 when the fire appliance business of Austral was purchased from the administrators of Clifford Corporation.[1][2][3]
In 2001 it purchased the rights to the Majestic coach and Orbit bus bodies from Queensland Coach Company.[4][5] AAT Kings and Greyhound Australia were major customers.[6][7] It also built ambulance bodies.
In September 2014, Mills-Tui ceased trading after being placed in administration.[8][9][10][11]
