Ipswich, Suffolk (March 18, 2015) Jacobsen, a Textron Inc company and manufacturer of high-quality turf maintenance equipment, recognised its top-performing dealers and salespeople during the Golf Industry Show in San Antonio, Texas recently.  

P.T. Sahabat Agritama, based in Jakarta, received the top award, namely APAC Distributor of the Year and were presented with their trophy by David Withers, President of Jacobsen.

Commenting at the presentation of the award, Chuck Greif, Managing Director of Jacobsen Asia-Pacific said,

“PT Sahabat began their business some 50 years ago when the mother and father of the current directors started a used truck parts business. For the past 30 years they have been a key partner of Jacobsen in the Southeast Asia market.  

“Even in the down turn, this dealer with their strength in market penetrations continued to grow their market share and now command over 50% share in their territory.  Add to this their world-class service ensuring that their customers are supported at all levels, it is richly deserved that they should be crowned Asia-Pacific Distributor of the Year.”

Among other Asia-Pacific distributors recognised for their dedication and exceptional contribution to the Jacobsen business were the Mikuni Shoko Company, a division of Mikuni Corporation, based in Saitama, Japan.

Again, speaking before the presentation of the Outstanding Service award Chuck Greif said,

“Mikuni is an organization that continues to place service ahead of everything else in the turf industry; they have proven themselves year over year as the leader in Japan providing exceptional service and parts support.”
