Komatsu Australia named Finalist in the 2024 Lord Mayor’s Business Awards

Komatsu Australia has been named as a finalist for the ISPT Investment in Brisbane Award 2024 as part of the Lord Mayor’s Business Awards.

This award highlights businesses that have made strategic investments in Brisbane, Queensland, contributing to the city’s future growth and development.

The nomination reflects Komatsu Australia’s strong and ongoing commitment to the Brisbane region, which has been an integral part of its story since 1978.

Komatsu says its continued investment reinforces its belief in Brisbane as a key hub for economic activity and customer support on Australia’s east coast.

“Through our state-of-the-art Komatsu Innovation Hub and Distribution Centre, we have invested not only in innovative technologies and solutions for the mining and construction industries, but also in Brisbane’s economy and local workforce,” the company said.

“The Innovation Hub, a global leader in advanced technology, drives economic development by creating jobs, fostering collaboration with local educational institutions and developing innovative solutions to industry challenges such as labour shortages and mine site safety.”

The Brisbane facilities currently employ over 500 people and serve more than 1,200 customers, generating $90m annually, all of which directly benefits the Brisbane economy.
