Pioneer Pump, a designer and manufacturer of centrifugal pumps has opened a new facility in Victoria, Australia. Pioneer Pump will manufacture, sell and service diesel and electric driven pump packagaes at the new 2,000 m2 facility on Sunshine West in Victoria. The new operation will be lead by Steve Bosnar who has been named as Managing Director and Vic Tannin has been named as Operations Manager.
Paul Schlumpberger, Pioneer Pump Vice President said “We recognise that mining industry experts in Australia have significant influence over the dewatering and pumping needs of mines worldwide. Adding service and support in Australia positions us to address one of our key market segments where many of the decisions are made.”
Pioneer Pump has experienced strong growth in the southeast Asian mining market over the last two years and the addition of the operation in Australia is seen as progress for its global expansion strategy. Brown Brothers Engineers, one of Australia and New Zealand’s leading pump suppliers, will continue as a distributor for Pioneer Pump in New Zealand and the Pacific Rim and as a dealer in Australia. Over the last ten years, Brown Brothers has established brand recognition and introduced Pioneer Pump in the region.
