Schiebel Group chairman Hans Georg Schiebel Hans Georg said: “Establishing a permanent base in Australia, managed and run by Australians, is a logical next step for Schiebel as the Pacific region is of significant strategic interest to us.
“We already have a strong working relationship with customers in the area and are committed to growing our footprint, delivering outstanding support for our current contracts, providing end-to-end servicing to potential clients, and backing local value creation.”
The company, which is strategically located between Canberra and Sydney in the Shoalhaven, New South Wales, Australia, has been founded to help support the company maintain a ‘lasting and mutually beneficial presence’ in the country.
The parent company already holds several defence contracts in the region.
