Branch offices on all continents

Weicon now represented in Australia

Weicon, the manufacturer of adhesives and sealants, has founded an eleventh branch abroad. With the new location near Brisbane in Australia, the Münster-based family business is now represented worldwide with branch offices on all continents.

 

Weicon Australia Pty. Ltd.

Weicon Australia Pty. Ltd, the official name of the new branch, is based in Yatala, between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, on the east coast of Australia. The branch is headed by Managing Director Joelle del Rio. “We’ve been working with Joelle for years. She joined our team in Münster in 2020 as a student trainee in our e-commerce department. Two years ago, she emigrated to Australia and set up the online business with our products there. We are very much looking forward to a successful collaboration with Joelle and her team and to a great start in Australia,” says Ann-Katrin Weidling, co-partner of the Weicon Group.

 

Brisbane and the Gold Coast

More than three million people live in the region of the new branch between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Brisbane is the industrial, commercial and financial centre of the state of Queensland and the third largest city on the continent.

 

The economy in Australia

Australia is a very interesting market for German companies. The strongest sectors of the economy are mining, the extraction of raw materials, the energy sector and environmental technology. Despite long distances, the continent is an important procurement market for many raw materials. The development of renewable energies, such as offshore wind power, has played a key role in Australia for several years and the country aims to reach carbon-neutrality by 2050.
