Saim Group acquires UK-based Kohler distributor

Saim Group, an Italian equipment supply company, has acquired Atlantis Marine Power (AMP) – the UK-based Kohler distributor – to give Saim more strength to distribute in the UK and to sell its products directly.

Peter Middleton, who bought AMP in 2005, will stay as a partner and director.

“Joining Saim Group will give us the opportunity to become a more powerful company, quicker in response and more diversified in the offer,” says Middleton, “We will be adding more quality components to our product range.”

“We’re very glad for this opportunity,” says Marco Donà, Saim’s CEO.

“The business relationship with Peter goes back many years ago. Saim and Atlantis Marine Power will be the two most important distributors in Europe for Kohler. We look forward to becoming a strong partner to the British boatbuilders like we are in Italy and in the Emirates.”

Massimo Donà, president of Saim Group says the company is strongly investing in new business opportunities both in new markets and technologies. It’s especially focused on renewable energy solutions. “The acquisition of AMP is fully synergic in this respect enabling us to approach several UK cutting-edge component manufacturers,” says Donà.

“We’re proud to be part of the Atlantis Marine family. This is a first step of our group towards territorial diversification, not only in the marine business.”

Saim also manufactures the QS SeamasterDC, AC and hydraulic tunnel or retractable thrusters range as well as Dynamica generators.
