Riviera named 2016 Australian Marine Exporter of the Year
Riviera is extremely proud to have recently been named the 2016 Australian Marine Industry Exporter of the Year award.
It is the second consecutive year Riviera – Australia’s most-awarded builder of luxury motor yachts – has received the top award from the Australian International Marine Export Group (AIMEX).
Judges were impressed by Riviera’s outstanding export performance, highlighted by:
• An impressive 50 per cent increase in the total number of Riviera yachts exported in 2015
• An encouraging 91 per cent increase in yacht numbers forward ordered for export in 2015.
Annually, Riviera exports 55 per cent of its production to international yacht owners.
