Experience That Matters |
Holytek was established in 1989 by George Ko. Previously he worked in his family's woodworking machinery manufacturing business for many years. This was an export based business and George Ko was responsible for marketing and auality control, among many other things. It seemed a natural progression to move over to more specialized woodworking machinery and start Holytek. Over the years the growth of the company has been steady and strong-going hand in hand with the continuous product improvement. In order to meet customer demands and to ensure optimum machining results, Holytek also supply a wide range of quality toolings and all kinds of wood working accessories.

International Branding |
Holytek was one of the first companies to realize that with on easily recognizable brand name, greater international sales could be achieved. Holytek cooperates with a worldwide network of sales agents that can handle not only sales but also after-sales service and back up..

The Trusted Network |
Currently, Holytek has more than 30 agents representing in excess of 60 countries around the world. But, how to handles such a vast network ? George Ko says that long-time mutual trust is the most important factor. He trusts all his agents to act on his behalf and to care about every installation. Each agent is the number one dealer in their respective regions. International sales are now divided as Europe 20% , Australia/New Zealand 20%, North and South America 30% and Asia 30%.

New and Emerging Markets |
George Ko is now looking toward emerging markets in India and South America and plants to exhibit at upcoming woodworking shows in these countries. Holytek have exhibited at the past seven Ligna shows in Hannover, Germany. They also have a foothold in Russia and Eastern Europe having established sales there about three years ago.

Special Partnerships |
Many may not now, but Holytek is one of the first Taiwanese woodworking machinery manufacturers to establish international joint ventures-starting in 1995. There is now Holytek Canada, Holytek Sweden, Holytek Germany and Holytek India set-up in 2006. Many of Holytek's dealers have become their joint venture partners. With these joint ventures, Holytek believe that they can improve the quality of their machinery offered and provide better services to every dealer to client.
