Gates celebrates 30 years in Australia

Customers, staff, industry partners and supporters gathered recently to mark Gates Australia’s 30-year anniversary.

The night was a chance to look back on some of the significant moments that have decorated Gates’ three decades in the country, and relive memories of years gone by. Throughout the night, a video played on screens behind guests, featuring images of past events, Gates products and facilities, and customer testimonials.

Gates Australia Managing Director Carl McGowan said on the night, “30 years in business for any type of company is an excellent effort. It is pleasing to say that a number of distribution partners have been with us for the whole journey; some even used the Gates product before we officially entered the Australian market in our own right!”

The theme of ‘quality’ ran throughout the night, with many distributors and partners highlighting the quality of Gates parts as a reason to continue using their belts, hoses and other products.

“We’d really like to thank all of those who attended, those who couldn’t make it and everyone who has been a part of the Gates Australia story so far,” said Gates Australia Marketing Manager Priscilla Robb.

“Without your support, we wouldn’t be where we are today. We’re looking forward to another three decades of business in Australia!”
