MIN’s list of key marine industry distributors in Europe, the UK, and the Middle East (EMEA) is constantly evolving. The list is not exhaustive. If a distributor has been inadvertently missed, please let MIN know via email.

MIN‘s chosen to present the list of marine distributors in the UK, Europe, Ireland and the Middle East by the country in which the known distributor agreement is operating, but obviously each marine distributor may operate in more regions. MIN’s list of marine distributors in North, Central and South America, and APAC (Asia and Pacific) is also available.

MIN spoke to Shakespeare Marine about the way in which it works with distributors. That article covers tips such as finding best fit, training and strategies, plus how to understand the different needs of distributors in different geographic locations.
