EPSON NEW ZEALAND DISSOLVED
No longer a separate entity from Epson Australia Pty
Epson
New Zealand has ceased to be a separate entity from its Australian
owner Epson Australia Pty.According to general manager Greg Skinner the
local business, which has its office in central Auckland, won’t undergo
any operational or staff changes as a result of the December
liquidation. “It was simply that we ceased being a company in our own
right and became completely under Epson Australia Pty,” says Skinner.
“Even as Epson New Zealand we were 100 percent owned by Epson Australia
so it is just paperwork.Liquidator Andrew Hawkes of Ernst and Young
Transaction Advisory Services says the liquidation is “completely
benign”. “It is a solvent liquidation for group restructuring purposes,”
Hawkes says.
