Sea-Sure to be sole distributor for Schaefer Marine products in UK Log-In to Post/Reply

Schaefer Marine Inc. announces that Sea-Sure Limited has been named the new and sole distributor for Schaefer Marine products into the United Kingdom including Schaefer Hardware, Tuff Luff, Battslide and Schaefer Jib Furling systems effective Jan. 2, 2012.

“During the past year, we have worked closely with Sea Sure as a United States Distributor for their products. We are excited to build on the synergies of both companies as we complement each other well in our range of products. Our ability to have product on the ground and ready to serve the U.K. market is more critical now than at any other time,” shared Steve Majkut, Schaefer Marine Director of Sales & Marketing.

Servicing customers five days a week – and available immediately to begin fielding calls and responding to service inquiries – Sea-Sure will operate from its main distribution center in Southampton. Sea-Sure, is well located to serve the active British market quickly and effectively from this location.

Graham Brown, Managing Director of Sea-Sure Ltd shared “From the outset we could see how all our customers could benefit from the shared logistics, a wider range of complimentary product lines and being able to deliver them at lowest cost. Both companies design, develop and manufacture product in-house. This pooling of resources means we can deliver on all these customer benefits and shorten the supply chain. It also means that we can develop new products even faster and help keep our customers on the water longer, enjoying their boating. Apart from that, they are a great bunch of guys to work with and all share our passion for sailing.”
