When the opportunity arose with SEAGA, we Conway Machine Announces Australia Distribution Agreement with SEAGA Group began to do our research. SEAGA turned out to be a great fit. They are partnered with some high-caliber companies like Heidelberg, CITO and Perivo. So, offering Conway products is a natural addition for their current customer base."
