Regal Marine Marks 30 years with Mercury

21.01.2010

Mercury Marine would like to congratulate Melbourne's Regal Marine on achieving a major milestone - 30 years as a successful Mercury dealer.

"Thirty years is a long time in anyone's book," said John Temple, General Manager - Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific.

"So I would like to publicly thank Peter Kent and his team at Regal Marine for being such an important part of the Mercury business for so many years.

"Passionate and knowledgeable dealers like Regal Marine are critical in this game - the marine industry is not an easy one - and for Peter to have succeeded for so long tells you a lot about the excellent business he's running."

Peter joined Mercury as a new motor dealership within six months of opening his doors and said he's never looked back.

"It's been a great ride. Mercury was ahead of the game then and they're ahead now, which is one of the reasons why we've survived," Peter said.

"I've got a lot of loyal clients who are happy to buy Mercury time and time again because they know they're getting quality."

Peter said it was very appropriate that John Temple was the one who came to the dealership to congratulate him.

"It was fitting because John was at Mercury when I joined 30 years ago," Peter said.

"There's a lot of longevity at Mercury which is a good thing, it's reassuring for dealers and clients.

"Milestones like these are great but you don't reach them by yourself, so I'd like to thank John and the people at Mercury for all their help as well as my own team here who really do a great job."
