McMurdo Ltd presented four awards in two categories to their top distributors during METS in Amsterdam. The awards, The Distributor of the Year Award and the New Distributor of the Year Award were made at the company’s stand at the show which ran for 3 days in November.

The Distributor of the Year Award went to two companies - Sunshine Marine Electronics of China, for their distribution of the McMurdo brand and Pochon of France for distribution of the Kannad Marine brand. The second Award category, the New Distributor of the Year, was awarded to Hispano Radio Maritimo of Spain for McMurdo and to Ocean Safety of the UK for Kannad Marine.

McMurdo Ltd enjoyed a busy METS where all indications pointed to an improved confidence in sales expectations within the marine equipment market. Our sales team met up with dealers and distributors from around the world. Particular interest was shown in a range of products on display for the first time which included the new rugged Safelink SOLO PLB.

Sales Director Ross Wilkinson commented ““METS was a very successful show for both brands, and it was exciting for us to launch several new products. The stand was very well attended, an indication that we will see good sales into the new year.”

Distributors admired a large cake in the shape of the new Safelink SOLO which was carved up on the first day and everyone had a slice!
