Tim Mikkelsen
Managing Director
Tim has been involved in the Hire Industry from the the age of
five when in 1969 his father purchased a small hire company in Palmerston North employing
two people. Tim worked for the family business on and off over
the years after school and in the holidays, but started in
earnest after returning from his OE in 1990. The family business
was sold in 1993 and at that point ran two separate divisions
(party hire and general hire) and employing a staff of twelve.
Tim worked for a corporate hire company for three years but really wanted to own
his own business.
Tim bought Kapiti Hire in December of 1999 and has taken the company from a small
one man band with a limited range of plant, to a staff of five including
himself and now hire anything from portable toilets to champagne
flutes. Tim is passionate about the hire industry and sits on the executive board of HIANZ (Hire Industry Association of New Zealand)
Tim is married with four children and is a member of the Rotary Club of Kapiti.
