William Buck SA was thrilled to learn that two of our clients were among the major winners at the 2023 South Australian Premierโs Business and Export Awards.
REDARC took out the title of South Australian Exporter of the Year, for the second year in a row, as well as the Manufacturing and Advanced Materials Award.
MyVenue was named Small Business Exporter of the Year and Beyond Borders Business of the Year.
To come out on top in such a coveted and hotly contested awards program, which attracted entries from 250 successful businesses, is testament to the drive and vision of REDARC and MyVenue.
Both companies have carved out a reputation as a global leader, with an unwavering dedication to innovation being a cornerstone to their spectacular rise.
REDARCโs power conversion products are used in recreational and non-recreational vehicles across Australia, North America, Europe, Middle East, South East Asia and South Africa.
MyVenueโs point-of-sale technology is widely deployed in iconic stadiums, arenas, and hospitality venues throughout North America and the Asia-Pacific region.
William Buck SA Managing Director Jamie McKeough said both had proven their credentials as โelite exportersโ and thoroughly deserved the accolades.
โWe know the teams at REDARC and MyVenue well, and each is a clear standout in their industry,โ Jamie said.
โWhile these two outstanding businesses vary significantly in their size, age and in the sectors and markets they operate, they do share some common traits.
โThey each have a global outlook and a clear growth vision with the confidence and drive to make it a reality. Critically, they also have strong international networks to provide on-the-ground support as they expand across foreign jurisdictions.โ

For REDARC Group CEO and Managing Director Anthony Kittel, going global is a marathon not a sprint.

They have guided us every step of the way through our international expansion as well as connecting us to their global colleagues when weโve needed local support in overseas markets,โ Anthony said.
