Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems has confirmed a new agreement with GMS Pacific to handle its distribution and servicing business across Oceania.

From its Melbourne headquarters, GMS Pacific will henceforth manage all sales, distribution, and servicing of Kongsberg’s equipment in the region. 

‘This latest agreement is a part of our ongoing process of moving towards a more efficient and effective way to meet the evolving needs of our customers,’ said Kongsberg president Stuart Fox. ‘The team at GMS Pacific has more than 20 years’ combined experience working with Kongsberg solutions. We are delighted to now begin this partnership as the exclusive digital finishing solution provider for its business.

‘With this distribution agreement, we are living up to our ethos of ‘global presence, local service’. While we realise a company our size doesn’t necessarily have the scale to offer the level of service we’d like in all parts of the world, having GMS Pacific as a local full-service distributor will enable us to give our customers across Australia and New Zealand the level of attention they deserve.’

GMS Pacific has been operating in the printing industry for over 40 years, supplying both equipment and consumables as well as providing expert advice to customers across Oceania.

The company’s managing director, Andrew McNamara, commented, ‘We have built our business and reputation by consistently delivering quality, service and reliability, and developing long-term partnerships with leading brands that deliver profitable solutions to our customers.

‘Kongsberg PCS is the leader in its markets and a great fit with GMS Pacific. We are delighted to be cementing our relationship with Kongsberg, establishing a dedicated team to support customers achieve their own business growth through distributing the leading range of digital finishing solutions and technological advancements in the field.’
