Two years after appointing David Brown to lead its activities in Australia and New Zealand, entrance control leaders Axess have revealed a number of successful installations in the region.

With subsidiaries all over the world, the Austrian company's establishment of a branch office for Australasia had long been under discussion prior to Brown’s appointment.

With long-standing clients in the New Zealand ski fields and having identified opportunities in the Australian ski fields, the creation of an on the ground presence in the region, which sees Axess represented on all continents, has not only helped in the support of pre-existing customers directly but has also presented the company with the opportunity to deliver solutions for arenas, attractions, stadia and theme parks.

With Axess having the advantage of being able to provide all solutions in a single database, it has already installed its systems at URBNSurf Melbourne and, with CustomLinc, at the Port Arthur Historic site in Tasmania.

In use at New Zealand’s big five ski fields, the company is also installing flap gates at Australia’s Thredbo resort and ticket vending at Thredbo, Falls Creek, Mt Hotham and Perisher Resorts while offering a full management system that includes gates ticket vending, rentals, ski shop and gates at Charlotte Pass and the soon-to-reopen Selwyn Snow Resort.

Brown (pictured) who is decorated for bravery in both Japan and Australia after saving several lives in an avalanche, represents the team in the position of General Manager with a strong sales career in the ski industry, is responsible for all five Axess business units in Australia.

Explaining the benefits Axess offers operators and their guests, Brown explains "Axess is so easy to use … everything just works, nothing ever seems to be a problem.

“I'm absolutely happy about my decision to be with Axess. Here you meet people with a super positive attitude, which is very refreshing and which corresponds exactly to the way I work.”

Based on the Gold Coast, Axess’ Australasian branch provides sales, project management and service and support.
