BENEFITS TO BECOMING A MAINSHIP DISTRIBUTOR
Favorable Exchange Rates
With the US Dollar at near-record lows against most major world currencies, any American brand represents exceptional value for money. American boats offer more space and generally more standard equipment than their European and Asian-built competitors. Coupled with the weak dollar, they are an unbeatable value.
Mainship – A High Volume Exporter
Mainship is the largest volume exporter of trawlers and "lobster-style" Pilots – a market leader.
Broad Product Range
Unlike many manufacturers, the Mainship product range spans 8 different models ranging from 30 to 45 feet.
Less competition
There are not as many competitors offering product of this type of design – less downward price pressure.
A Niche Product
The trawler market is aa niche market, but this market is large enough to support good, profitable volume with less competitors.
Generous Support Package Including:
Generous, industry leading margins.
Marketing support and boat show financial support.
Sales incentives for boat shows.
Volume discounts.
GE floor plan finance with interest subsidy (where available).
Big Company Power – Small Company Feel
The four Luhrs Marine Group companies are privately owned – no massive conglomerates involved – yet are large & strong enough to invest in the technology needed for low-cost and efficient manufacturing. Our collective buying power across the four brands affords us strong negotiating power with our suppliers. Our family-ownership roots carry over to our distributor network – many of whom have been representing our products for over a decade and are part of our “extended” family.
Generous Territories
Mainship wants its Distributors to be profitable. Our network development approach is to not over saturate a market with distributors. We prefer healthy, financially strong distributors who are able to properly invest in the marketing, stocking, and selling our product, and also servicing our owners so that they remain loyal customers of our brand and your dealership. Many manufacturers believe in the “more is better” approach – leading to excessive competition between dealers, eroded margins, and poor customer service.
Committed and Focused International Team
Mainship recognizes that our largest opportunities for growth are outside our domestic market. Mainship maintains a dedicated International sales department with team members based in the US and Europe. We pride ourselves on rapid responsiveness to questions, and are interested in working with you to make our product a success in your market. We also offer freight arrangements as a no charge service to our distributors, while many manufacturers leave these important logisitical issues entirely in the hands of the dealer and freight forwarder.
Compliant Product
All models are fully CE-Certified, and are delivered with equipment appropriate to the region where they are sold, even down to the TV and DVD players, electrical sockets, etc. No upcharges are assessed for an “International Boat".
