Knowing his business interests are represented is something Paul Milevskiy, owner of The Torque Team holds in high regard.  

Paul was a corporate professional before taking over the mechanics business in 2016.  

It was during the global pandemic when Paul and his small team were forced to manage a business thorough restrictions and challenges. He said Business Chamber Queensland was critical in providing timely, valuable information he needed to manage his business and workforce. 

“The Chamber is a voice directly to Queensland Government on behalf of businesses in Queensland. It was also some reassurance someone had our interests at heart and was being proactive about doing something about that.”
