Meet your Business Success Partner
David giving a Keynote Presentation to a group of Business owners - Gold Coast, Australia
Say hello to David Thexton
David’s expertise lies in working with SME Business Owners to assist them to improve the Profit, Growth, and Value of their Business.
The last few years have been very traumatic for most businesses, and they need all the help they can get to get back on their feet and regain profitability and financial safety.
My $100m Business Success story
David’s business background is in founding a huge beverage company in 1982 and over 20 years building it into a NZ$100m business with 400 employees, this business was the market leader in the New Zealand juice market with many number one brands that you may know: Keri, Thextons, E2, KIWI Blue, Rio Gold, plus many others.
Coca-Cola acquired this company in 2002 when David took up a life-long dream to race in the Australian V8 Supercar series.
Working with Business Owners since 2005
Since 2005, David has been a Business Success Partner, working with many Business Owners in Australia and New Zealand helping them to build better businesses for the ultimate benefit of their Families/Owners.
Southern Business Success
Brought up in South Auckland, David understands the area very well. He currently he lives in the Drury Hills. After taking a 5 year break to work his family business, he’s stepping back out to help others after a tumultuous time for many business owners.
I want to work with you

Client Success Stories
-
Bakery on the rise
Over a 4 month period, David helped a 2-branch bakery solve a cash-flow crisis and become a cash cow. With guidance, the business expanded by 4 additional branches over next the 2 years.
-
Paving the way
David helped to transform a concrete paving slab business. The production process was automated, allowing for more production and significantly less staff, instantly transforming profitability. Over a 2 year period, David helped to sell their products in Bunnings in Australia giving them 100 new outlets and 2 million in extra sales.
-
Less people more profit
Working with the management team of a manufacturing company, David discovered excessive staffing levels. An organisational chart and defined positions were created to restructure from 130 to 103 staff, instantly adding a massive amount to the bottom line in a matter of months.
-
Modernised printer
This 20-year old traditional printing business never made a profit. The owners often borrowed money just to keep afloat. David led a 21st-century modernisation, turning it from an ink and paper business into a digital business. After 12 months, it became genuinely profitable.
