It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that Rory Milton, co-founder of Pier City Custom, passed away last weekend.
Rory’s passion, vision and dedication played a huge part in building Pier City Custom into what it is today. His contribution to the business, and his impact on everyone who worked alongside him, will not be forgotten.
Over recent weeks, Rory and I had finalised the decision for him to step away from Pier City Custom and for me to take full ownership of the business. This was a mutually agreed and carefully planned transition, which was already underway before his passing.
Pier City Custom remains open, stable and fully committed to our customers. We do, however, ask for your patience and understanding over the coming weeks as the team and I navigate this incredibly difficult time. Please bear with us if there are some brief delays over the next week or two.
Most importantly, we kindly ask that you respect the privacy of Rory’s family and friends at this very difficult time.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
