Australian-listed bulk materials software development company, QMastor, has opened its first office in the United States as it expands its global footprint to support and service key mining regions in North America.
QMastor managing director, Trent Bagnall, said
the opening of a US office in Denver, Colorado, follows the company’s
recent contract win to supply a comprehensive supply chain management
system to metallurgical coal producer, Jim Walter Resources, based in
Birmingham, Alabama.
According to Bagnall, “there are significant opportunities for QMastor
systems in both Canada and the USA, and the establishment of a local
office is an important step in our strategy to further enhance our
presence in this region.
“The sales team has built a strong North American sales pipeline over
the last 12 months and having a focused presence will help deliver
results.”
Bagnall said that Phil Ciezak would manage QMastor’s North American
operations. “Phil, in his role as business development and marketing
manager for our Australian operations, helped grow the company for the
past three years and contributed to QMastor reporting record year end
revenue and earnings growth. I am confident Phil and his team will
leverage this prior success in the lucrative North American market.”
