After 30 years in the business, Parmaker's commitment to the principles the company was founded on remain unchanged.

The story of Parmaker ride on and electric buggies

Parmaker set out in 1979 to build the best electric / battery golf buggy in the world. To achieve this Parmaker’s buggies had to be stronger, lighter and more reliable than other companies. We had to use the latest materials and manufacturing techniques and they had to run, and run, and run.

The only way to achieve our objectives was to control every step in the process. From design and engineering, to manufacturing, to field testing.

This commitment to excellence has been a significant factor in Parmaker’s continued success. While other companies continue to import key componentry and materials from overseas, Parmaker remains resolutely ‘Australian-made’.
