Marine engine specialist Seapower Australia Pty Ltd has become the Australia Importer / Distributor for Mitsubishi marine gensets and marine propulsion diesel engine.
Seapower Australia's already impressive portfolio includes premium brands such as MAN, Yanmar, Volvo Penta and Cummins Onan. The Mitsubishi product range strengthens their offering in the heavy duty commercial sector and widens an extensive customer base.
Mitsubishi Diesel Engines is extremely successful within the Japanese and North American markets but felt they needed better partners in other regions. Mitsubishi have been looking to strengthen its market position within Australia through it's genset packaging facility in Holland, Power House and extensive investigation brought them to the door of Seapower Australia.
Seapower Australia literally ticked all the boxes and provided a 'ready to go' platform.
- Reputable and respected company that complements Mitsubishi Diesel Engines reputation.
- Experience is an importer and distributor of similar high quality products.
- Experience in Spare Parts handling and distribution.
- Experience technically supporting a quality engine brand.
- Experienced 'dedicated' sales staff, who understand marine engine and gensets requirements and installations.
- Australian wide dealer network which can provide 'local' support.
"Our goal is to become the number one distributor and dealer for the supply of quality marine engine and Mitsubishi Diesel Engines with their Power House products is another step along that path" said Seapower Australia General Manager, Steve Mawhinney.
"Over the past 18 months Seapower Australia has been going through a transition from a great local company to a great local company with a great National support network. Our existing MAN dealer network has been providing fantastic service and support for MAN owners everywhere so the Mitsubishi product complemented that existing network perfectly. MAN owners expect the best in a service and support network and the commercial sector is no different".
Seapower Australia recent growth has certainly gone against global trends but Steve Mawhinney has a simple message behind that success. "Seapower Australia has a basic philosophy. Build a sound foundation of well trained staff representing the best products in the business and you have a platform that will support growth and development. If we wanted confirmation that all our hard work and effort was working we certainly received it when we got the call from Mitsubishi Power House," said Steve. "They were particularly impressed with our parts distribution capabilities and that our MAN dealer network would be offering instant support. When businesses such shipping companies purchase on-board gensets they need to know they have support in every corner of the world. In Australia they now have peace of mind that Seapower is there for all their customers."
Seapower Australia has recently opened it's second facility Wangara, in Perth's Northern suburbs. In true Seapower Australia fashion it offers full mechanical service, parts and sales services.
