Brett Wistrand
Managing Director
Brett was born and raised in the Manawatu, established Kernow Construction in 2002 and is proud to be running a locally owned and operated company servicing the ManawatÅ« and surrounding regions. Still actively managing all aspects of the business Brett wears many hats including estimator, quantity surveyor and sometimes can still be spotted with a tool belt on—whatever it takes to get the job done!
Brett looks to forward to future projects with his team. Providing a high-quality work environment where staff feel secure and valued is an important foundation to build his team upon. Brett is proud to have 3 of his children be a part of the Kernow Team.
Away from the office Brett enjoys golf, motocross, rugby, the outdoors, and spending quality time with family and friends.
