COMPANY DIRECTION The CAPE Group is constantly looking for “niche market” products in our area of expertise where the emphasis is on quality, reliability and safety. The company will sell, maintain and operate the equipment they represent in the relevant area of the world. In addition, CAPE Group can provide consultation and design for products for special Offshore or Onshore applications.
The Company believes that in order to have a broad operating base to weather the market peaks and troughs, it is important to mix the Offshore and Onshore business as well as having a geographical spread. This is achieved by having small, locally owned and run companies, overseeing the activities in their respective geographical areas, with close support from Head Office. This enables each company to have it’s own direction and to operate in the way the market demands in each area, with instant response to a customers needs. Today CAPE GROUP have offices in Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as associated representation in Vietnam, Laos and Burma (Myanmar).
