Kiwi Partners... NSSLGlobal's Products Will Sell Through New Zealand's Wrights Technologies 


They agree to work together, one company will provide their products that will be sold through the other, a distributor, to New Zealanders. APAC has always been a region of major importance for the satellite communications provider, and now with the New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands covered by this partnership, NSSLGlobal will continue its commitment to the region.

Independent global satellite communications provider NSSLGlobal and professional/commercial marine electronics reseller Wrights Technologies announce an exclusive partnership in which Wrights Technologies will sell NSSLGlobal’s full range of maritime and land-based VSAT solutions in New Zealand alongside third party solutions such as Iridium and Inmarsat’s L-Band and Global Xpress.  

Colin Mitten, CEO, Wrights Technologies said that they have worked closely with NSSLGlobal on a number of projects in the past. It was immediately apparent that they share a tendency to go above and beyond to deliver on promises to their customers, and to keep everything they do customer-centric.

He continued that as a business, they are drawn to NSSLGlobal’s deep and long-standing industry expertise, its excellent reputation, 24/7 technical support offering, and its fully-owned-and-controlled global VSAT network. They are looking forward to the future with NSSLGlobal and how they can work together to provide the next step in connectivity for New Zealand’s maritime and media companies, along with defense and emergency response. 

This strategic partnership further underlines the importance of the rapidly-growing APAC market to NSSLGlobal. APAC has always been a region of major importance for the satellite communications provider, and now with the New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands covered by this partnership, NSSLGlobal will continue its commitment to the region.

Scott McBride, Global Sales Director, NSSLGlobal added that they’re continually looking to expand NSSLGlobal into new geographical areas through both strategic partners and direct customers. Penetrating the New Zealand market was a strategic decision for them, and they’re delighted to form this partnership with Wrights Technologies, one of the leading resellers in the region. He added that this exciting partnership offers New Zealand’s customers a combination of Wright Technologies’ local market expertise, sales support and service, alongside NSSLGlobal’s global reach, technical support, and off-the-shelf or bespoke packages. An appealing proposition.

NSSLGlobal’s fully-owned and controlled global VSAT network, including six teleports, 23 beams and 15 satellites, will provide New Zealand’s customers with access to world coverage and a range of specialist solutions. This includes VSAT IP@SEA, NSSLGlobal’s dedicated maritime VSAT service (DVBS2-RCS2), offering fixed monthly fees and speeds of up to 40 Mbit/s to help guarantee vessels’ voice and data connectivity as well as its land-based VSAT service, Broad-IP.
