The Mountain Trike Company expands into Australia with new retail partnership
Cheshire-based all-terrain wheelchair manufacturer The Mountain Trike Company has announced a new partnership with mobility products retailer Finch Healthcare in Australia.
With a network of 29 retailers and offices in Metro and Regional Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales, Western Australia, Tasmania, and Northern Territory, Finch Healthcare represents a curated selection of brands, offering premium products for retail partners in the special needs, healthcare, and aged care sectors.
All of its retailers have access to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), which provides funding to eligible individuals with permanent and significant disabilities, enabling them to participate in everyday activities.
Finch now stocks the full range of Mountain Trike all-terrain wheelchairs, available for trial and purchase in Australia, and Mountain Trike are thrilled to be one of their chosen brands.
Ricardo Morren, Executive Director at Finch Healthcare, shared his enthusiasm: “I was first introduced to the Mountain Trike through one of our valued retail partners, Urgoform, who had already recognized the exceptional potential of these all-terrain wheelchairs.
“The moment I saw the product, I envisioned how it could benefit a much broader audience across Australia, particularly with the accessibility of NDIS funding. I am truly delighted that this vision has now become a reality, and we are proud to be the official distributor of Mountain Trike products nationwide.”
Ricardo continued: “We have just received our first batch of 12 Mountain Trikes, and I was fortunate to witness the meticulous production process first-hand during my recent visit to the Mountain Trike headquarters in the UK.
“The craftsmanship and attention to detail in every product are truly remarkable. These all-terrain wheelchairs are life-changing for individuals with limited mobility, enabling them to access outdoor spaces like never before.
“The response from our retail partners has been overwhelmingly positive, and we’ve already placed another order to meet the growing demand.”
“At Finch Healthcare, we offer clients the opportunity to trial or purchase the Mountain Trike, with options ranging from manual to electric assist, as well as models that offer independent or assisted control.
“This flexibility ensures that the Mountain Trike is suitable for a wide range of users—spanning various age groups and disabilities. In short, it’s an incredibly versatile off-road wheelchair that can transform lives. We are thrilled to add Mountain Trike to our carefully selected product range.”
Tim Morgan, Managing Director at Mountain Trike added, “This is a very exciting opportunity for us. Having an organisation like Finch Healthcare representing our brand in Australia is huge.
“They have some incredible connections through their retailer network and the knowledge and access available through the NDIS funding will really help support individuals navigate what can generally be a tricky process.
“I’m looking forward to working with Ricardo and the team at Finch and seeing the growth of the Mountain Trike products expanding across Australia.”
Since 2011 in a small village on the outskirts of Nantwich in Cheshire the Mountain Trike Company have been manufacturing wheelchairs that help change the lives of wheelchair users.
The Mountain Trike Company recently welcomed customers, distributors and councillors to the grand opening of its newly expanded production facilities.
