August Race names East Marine Asia as exclusive distributor for Thailand
British boat care company August Race has appointed East Marine Asia as its exclusive distributor in Thailand. The agreement is part of the brand’s broader expansion across southeast Asia.
The new partnership will make August Race’s products more accessible to Thailand’s marine sector. As the newly appointed distributor, East Marine Asia will offer the full August Race boat care range, which includes cleaning, protection and maintenance products.
The boat cleaning and maintenance product company has seen rapid international growth in recent years – in June 2025, August Race also announced Ribcraft India as its distributor in the Indian market.
“We’re delighted to partner with Ian Lok and the team at East Marine Asia to strengthen our presence in Thailand,” says Peter Wallbank, group technical director at August Race. “It’s one of Asia’s most important boating markets and East Marine Asia’s reputation for quality and expertise makes them the perfect partner to deliver our world-class boat care solutions to Thai customers.”
Echoing the sentiment, Ian Lok Ho Keong, sales & marketing manager at East Marine Asia, adds: “We’re very proud to represent August Race in Thailand. Their products set the benchmark for professional boat care, and we look forward to making them widely available to our customers.”
According to August Race, its products are used by leading boatbuilders, marinas and yacht owners worldwide and have become internationally recognised for innovation, performance and environmental responsibility.
August Race products are available in a number of international markets.
