Australian Firm Chooses Dungannon For New Manufacturing Facility
Adelaide-based Dynamic Equipment Ltd, owned by Australian native Daniel Ritchie, has chosen Dungannon as the location for a new manufacturing facility, creating seven jobs. Dynamic Equipment provides design, manufacture and installation of static quarry plants such as cone crushers, screens, feeders and washing equipment.
Welcoming the company to Northern Ireland, Ethna McNamee (pictured right), Invest Northern Ireland’s Western Regional Manager, said: “Dynamic Equipment is a highly innovative company and it is welcome news that it has chosen Dungannon to establish this new manufacturing facility. Growing and strengthening Northern Ireland’s manufacturing business base is core to Invest NI’s business strategy.
“Highlighting our commitment to the Mid Ulster region, we created a support package which has enabled Dynamic Equipment to set up in Dungannon and build a strong team. Daniel Ritchie is a very ambitious entrepreneur who brings a wealth of business experience and our support will provide a solid foundation for the company to fulfil future growth plans, particularly to generate export success in Europe, Australia and America.”
Dynamic Equipment is headquartered in Australia with offices in the US and Malaysia. Invest NI has helped the company with advice on setting up its business in Northern Ireland and offered £49,000 of support towards the creation of seven new jobs, three of which are in place.
Daniel Ritchie (pictured left), Owner and Managing Director of Dynamic Equipment, said: “We first established Dynamic Equipment due to the increasing demand in the global market for high quality mineral processing, aggregate and mining equipment. Choosing Northern Ireland was an easy choice for our business and we have been impressed with the high calibre of talent on offer here.
“Invest NI’s support has also been instrumental in our decision to set up here and its support to bring new staff on board will ensure that we form a team which will strengthen our global business. We have already recruited three new staff and are very much looking forward to continuing recruitment and progressing our ambitious growth plans.”
