October 29, 2024 – PORT COQUITLAM, BC After 13 years with Australian-owned and operated Advance Traders, Norco has decided to go direct to dealer in Australia.
We would like to thank Advance Traders for their partnership.
The transition will take place October 2025, and Chris Hennessey, who has been managing the Advance Traders business and has over 30 years of tenure with Norco, will be making the move to Australia to lead our team as General Manager.
The sales strategy in Australia is 100% IBD focused, with a broader range of Norco products, and tailor-made marketing to align the Australian market with our other global direct markets.
“We are excited to have a closer connection to all of Norco bike dealers in Australia and are looking forward to this next chapter in the Australian market.” – Sean Sullivan, Norco CEO
