Benetti in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region:
In 2010, Benetti opened its Hong Kong office to provide on-the-ground access to sales and service for the APAC region. From 2019 to 2021, Benetti’s APAC region has led its global sales with around a quarter of new production sales coming from that region alone and equating to more than €260 million in sales. This has resulted in a rapidly growing fleet in the region. The region has eight vessels currently in build for APAC buyers including four full custom yachts destined for APAC. Following the increase in new yacht sales, the popularity of Benetti in the pre-owned market for APAC has also seen strong activity. Some of the success is a result of the evolution of the Benetti range in particularly the OASIS DECK™ where the style and functionality completely align with the changing requirements of APAC superyacht owners. To date, Benetti has sold six Oasis 40M models, representing 40% of Benetti’s Oasis 40M sales across the globe.
