Who we are

A family built on earthmoving

The RP Con story

Established 2015,
East Rand, Gauteng

RP Con was established in early 2015 by twin brothers Rudolf and Petrus Botha, who bring over 5 years of industry experience in earthmoving machinery. They built the company under their father Phillip Botha's guidance, who has spent more than 25 years in construction.

Starting with just one machine, the company has grown steadily to meet the needs of the construction and mining sectors, as well as individual clients across Gauteng and surrounding areas.

Based on 5 hectares of land in the East Rand, RP Con is strategically positioned to offer seamless service throughout the region. What makes RP Con different is how they see their work — not as an industry, but as a community.
