Haines Hunter Inducted to Manufacturing Hall of Fame

Haines Hunter were inducted into the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame on Thursday May 18 in recognition of their consistent manufacturing excellence.

The Hall of Fame showcases locally based manufacturers whose innovative and sophisticated solutions to global manufacturing issues have made them world leaders.

Over 800 companies vied for their place in the Hall of Fame, with just 120 of these making it to the short list.

Haines Hunter was one of just 14 companies, and the only boating manufacturer, to make it past the rigorous selection and judging process to ultimately be granted the honour of making it into the Hall of Fame.

Judging included an overview of all procedures, an audit of workplace safety policies and total quality control manufacturing.

Haines Hunter managing director, John Haber, is extremely proud of his company's efforts.

“It is a real honour to win such a prestigious award,” Mr Haber said.

“Haines Hunter is very proud to be part of a group of companies who receive such high recognition on a global level, and it is even better to see a boat manufacturer being recognised on this kind of level.”

Haines Hunter's achievement is even more impressive considering the Melbourne plant has only been in operation for a mere three years.

The awards are an intiative of the Victorian government and began in June 2001 and are held each year to showcase the talent of local manufacturers on both a national and international level..

There are currently only 66 companies who have been bestowed the honour of joining their ranks.

This year Haines Hunter joins other world renowned manufacturers such as Toyota in the Hall of Fame.
