Milmeq
New Zealand
acquisition
strengthens
Wiley capability
In late February Wiley New Zealand
completed its acquisition of the primary
food processing design and engineering
consultancy team from Milmeq New
Zealand. The acquisition sees the further
establishment of Wiley’s services
in the country and their first permanent
presence within New Zealand.
Wiley has long enjoyed a collaborative
relationship with Milmeq and the new
team will provide a valuable addition in
servicing the group’s clients globally.
The specialised nature of the team’s activities
positions them at the forefront
of global design in processing facilities
with a global support team from which
to draw knowledge and experience. The
local team are based in Dunedin which
has become home for Wiley New Zealand
operations.
Wiley’s Brandon Miller says: “We are excited
to bring the Milmeq team and their
wealth of experience on board. The acquisition
strengthens our existing Wiley
New Zealand operations and our ability
to service our clients globally.
“Dunedin represents a great synthesis
of trained engineering and design capability
combined with strong links to
R&D through the University of Otago.
With strong technology infrastructure,
access to international flights, and the
ability to collaborate with other technology
providers Dunedin is attractive
in a world that is increasingly more connected.
