29th January 2008 - Clark Equipment opens a new branch in Hamilton NZ

"The opening of a branch here in Hamilton is a sign of the company's commitment to the Waikato region, triggered largely by the decision to extend our Australian range of Daken agricultural products into the New Zealand market," said Li Ma Clark Equipment General Manager NZ at the opening.

"The new Hamilton branch is a significant step for the company, as we have long seen the value of becoming a significant contributor to one of the fastest growing regions in New Zealand with its strong rural background. The new premises will also strengthen our presence nationwide."

"Our existing New Zealand product range is outstanding, with Bobcat skid-steer loaders, track loaders, excavators & telescopic handlers; Bobcat utility vehicles; Ingersoll Rand compressors, generators & light towers; Omega Mega Stackers, Clark forklifts; King Lifter truck mounted forklifts. To which we have added Daken agricultural equipment: ClarkClean and Karcher professional cleaning equipment. All of these brands lead the world in terms of quality, technology, ergonomics and productivity."

"The branch will have a strong emphasis on customer support with more space within the complex for major overhauls and general maintenance work. Clark Equipment will also be able to offer a wide range of rental options including excavators, skid-steer loaders, forklifts and cleaning equipment."

Hamilton is home to the biggest agriculture trade show in the southern hemisphere. The Mystery Creek Field day attracts 1000 exhibitors and 125,000 visitors, positively impacted the regional and national economy to the turn of over $600m each year.
