Wood-Mizer, the global leader in portable sawmill innovation, is thrilled to announce the opening of its first regional distribution branch in Malaysia, marking a significant milestone in the company's expansion efforts in the South-East Asia market. This regional branch will be the first of its kind in Asia, demonstrating Wood-Mizer's commitment to providing exceptional service and support to its valued customers and dealers in the region.
With the establishment of the South-East Asia distribution branch, Wood-Mizer will now maintain local stock for fast and efficient deliveries across Malaysia and neighboring countries. This strategic move will significantly enhance customer satisfaction by reducing lead times and improving after-sales support levels in the region.
The decision to take over the management of the South-East Asia market was made after the relocation of our longstanding dealer, who had cooperated with Wood-Mizer for nearly two decades.
“We extend our sincere gratitude to our Malaysia dealer for their dedication and hard work in representing Wood-Mizer during their time with us” said Mr. Robert Moxham, Asia Regional Director. “This smooth transition of the market management to Wood-Mizer ensures the continuation of support for our valued customers.”
The company has a growing number of customers in the region who run a wide range of sawmilling machinery and count on Wood-Mizer. “I trust Wood-Mizer. Wood-Mizer machines are precise in cutting and are very good,” shares Mohd Nazmie, Wood-Mizer customer in Malaysia. “It was a great and smart investment."
Wood-Mizer is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Daniel Wong as the Country Manager for the Malaysian operation. With a remarkable background in sales and marketing, combined with his experience as a branch manager in the material handling equipment business and automotive sectors, Daniel brings extensive knowledge and expertise to the Malaysian operation. Daniel's ability to fluently communicate in English, Bahasa, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Hokkien will greatly facilitate effective communication with customers and partners from diverse backgrounds.
"We are excited to establish our first regional distribution branch in South-East Asia," said Mr. Daniel Wong, Country Manager of the Malaysian operation. "We are committed to providing local stock and fast deliveries to our customers, ensuring their success and satisfaction. I am honored to lead this new chapter and look forward to working closely with our customers and dealers to exceed their expectations."
Wood-Mizer's new South-East Asia distribution branch sets the stage for increased support levels, reaffirming the company's commitment to the region's growing customer base. With a strong leadership team and local stock availability, Wood-Mizer is well-positioned to provide the best-in-class products and services to customers and dealers across the region.
