Queensland, Australia
New distribution brand Ahern Australia was officially launched at the HRIA Convention last week and will serve the entire Australian market.
Ahern Australia Pty Limited is the new name for the Snorkel Australia Pty Limited direct sales and service entity, which was acquired by Xtreme Manufacturing in October 2013 as part of the global Snorkel acquisition.
Ahern Australia will become the ‘parent’ brand for our activities in the region, and they will distribute and support Snorkel lifts. The major advantage of the Ahern Australia name is that it will allow us to easily distribute Xtreme telehandlers through the same channels. This presents a good opportunity in Australia, where there is a strong demand for high capacity telehandlers.
The existing Snorkel Australia facilities and personnel will all remain under the new name, and we will continue to provide the same levels of Snorkel customer service and product support.
