Local Melbourne business owners Ryan Butler and Jennifer Irvin – previous owners of family healthcare company specialising preventing pressure injuries and falls – have recognised the potential of the trivida wheel and will operate as the importers for Australia and New Zealand.
Attending Medica in Dusseldorf with the new owner of our former business, we actually weren’t looking for new products. But when we saw the trivida wheels we couldn’t pass up the opportunity. They are truly unique and most importantly have such huge upside for people using wheelchairs and their carers. We love that they have been developed by another family business.
This has been our underlying business philosophy – client and human focussed. For us that means that we want to actively contribute to positive health outcomes for the people using our products. We have high client service standards having both come from industries where this is paramount and we apply this to all that we do.
Ryan was previously an ICU nurse in the US and has worked in the healthcare industry all his professional life. Jennifer was a management consultant, specialising in program/project implementation and has a financial and regulatory background. They both focus on business strategy, with Ryan’s key responsibility is on sales and Jennifer looking after corporate functions.
They’ve had a break to travel and pursue other passion projects and are now ready to get their teeth back into business – recharged and refocussed.
