Kennards Hire continues to branch out

Australian rental company Kennards Hire has continued growing with plans for a new office in Hamilton, New Zealand.

Catering to a vast range of industries as well as the DIY home improvement market, Kennards Hire said the new branch would boast tools and equipment suited to the materials handling, construction, civil and concreting industries, among others.

Tom Kimber, general manager of Kennards Hire New Zealand, said Hamilton was a hub for both construction and agriculture, which was a key motivator in opening a new branch there.

“The opening of the Hamilton branch is great opportunity to say thanks to New Zealand for supporting the growth of Kennards Hire in NZ since we launched the business here just a few years ago,” he said.

“Our new location in Hamilton is a real centre for the construction industry, and it gives us the opportunity to engage with some innovative operators within this space.

“Also, many of our key accounts operate in the agriculture sector, which is another industry that thrives in Hamilton and helps drive its economy.

“We’ll mark the opening with a number of events for industry members as well our broader customer base on site at the new branch.”
