A Journey of Growth and Success.
Mark Harris's entrepreneurial journey is defined by calculated risk-taking, relentless drive, and a sharp instinct for identifying opportunity. Leaving school at 15 to enter the workforce, Mark recognised early that achieving his ambitions would require both vision and grit. At just 20 years old, he relocated to Western Australia in pursuit of opportunity.
After facing initial setbacks, including losing his first job shortly after arriving in Perth, Mark launched his first business using borrowed funds. An experience that would lay the foundation for a career built on resilience, strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of value creation.
Key Milestones: Turning Gaps into Growth
Lifestyle Asset Turnaround
Successfully generated an 80% return on investment within just 18 months through the redevelopment of a hospitality property. This project involved a complete refurbishment and operational overhaul, showcasing Mark’s ability to identify undervalued assets, implement effective processes, and deliver exceptional results in record time. The project also highlighted Mark’s knack for building strong investor relationships, providing substantial returns to stakeholders.
Scaling and Exiting a Manufacturing Business
Led the growth of Western Australia’s second-largest roller shutter manufacturing company, transforming it into a highly profitable and efficiently run business. Mark’s leadership across operations, sales, and workforce management positioned the business for a successful exit. This milestone reflects his capability to build scale and value with an eye for long-term strategy.
Transforming a Surface Treatment, Corrosion control & Coatings Company
Delivered an impressive 350% increase in net profits within just 11 months for a corrosion control surface treatment business. Now operating independently under management. By streamlining processes, optimising operations, and building a high-performance culture, Mark rapidly expanded the client base and established the company’s reputation as Perth’s go to coatings provider. This achievement highlights his deep operational knowledge and ability to engineer scalable growth.
Entrepreneurial Growth & Success
In just the past 12 months, I’ve built an importing, sales, and distribution company from the ground up — a recent side venture to my main business. What started as a startup is now generating over $480,000 in monthly sales with an impressive 40% net profit margin.
Resilience and Innovation.
Following a significant business setback, Mark refined his strategic model and embracing sharper execution, stronger risk management, and a focus on building sustainable operations. These lessons have become the cornerstone of the Harris Galvanizing Group model: to turn undervalued or underperforming ventures into profitable, resilient enterprises with long-term potential.
