Mimaki recognises top performing distributors

Mimaki Australia hosted an event celebrating its top-performing distributors and introducing a new internal award to recognise excellence within its own team.

Held in Sydney during PacPrint, the awards evening brought together Mimaki’s distributor network, company leadership, and international guests to acknowledge the significant contributions of key partners.

National Sales Manager Jason Hay welcomed attendees, emphasising the importance of collaboration in driving brand success.

“Our dealer network is central to our growth strategy,” Hay said. “This is our second gathering in 12 months to highlight the value and impact of our partners in representing Mimaki across Australia.”

Hay extended thanks to Mimaki Australia Managing Director Kohei Kobayashi—who joined the business in April 2024—and Mimaki Asia Pacific Sales Director Shiko Sakaguchi for their ongoing support.

For the first time, Mimaki also introduced an internal award to celebrate high performance within its Australian team.

“At the end of the day, what we want to do now is set a legacy—ensuring that people who come and work for Mimaki understand their true value,” said Hay.

The inaugural award for Top Performing Hardware Salesperson 2024/25 was presented to NSW Channel Manager Roger Corby, who expressed gratitude to both Mimaki and the dealer network for their support in achieving the milestone.
