Workers at two NSW factories have slammed their former employer after the company went bust, leaving them and other creditors multiple millions out of pocket.

Last month, two companies linked to the sydney-based Apollo group, which manufactures kitchen and bathroom joinery, collapsed into liquidation after 56 years in business.

Its main clients were big builders who will likely have to wear the cost in an already difficult market. Apollo also had showrooms in Sydney and the Central Coast where customers could come in to order cabinets or bench tops for their homes directly.

The Federal Court ordered Apollo Kitchens (NSW) Pty Ltd into liquidation in March over a $7.8 million unpaid tax debt, leading to around 100 people losing their jobs.

Following in quick succession was the collapse of Brownlen Pty Ltd later in March, which was placed into voluntary liquidation. Brownlen was the employing arm of Apollo’s head office staff and has resulted in a further 29 job losses.

One staff member, Ron*, who preferred to stay anonymous for future job prospects, hasn’t received any superannuation for 18 months, not since October 2022.

“All staff are absolutely disgusted,” Ron told news.com.au.
