Barton Marine continues to expand its distribution network through the appointment of Amarcord Marine Ltd in Hungary. Amarcord Marine is the sister company of Galco Yachting Ropes, a well-established family-owned manufacturer with six generations expertise in creating quality ropes for general use and two generations specifically for sailors. The Barton range of marine equipment complements the wider Amarcord Marine offering to provide a one stop shop for the Hungarian boating marketplace and territories.
Sailing in Hungary is a vibrant and growing sport, centred primarily around Lake Balaton, the largest lake in Central Europe measuring nearly 600 square kilometres and stretching nearly 80 kilometres along Hungary's southern foothills. The lake hosts numerous regattas, including the Kékszalag (Blue Ribbon Regatta), which is Europe's oldest round-the-lake sailing race. The Hungarian government is an active supporter of the industry with the development of youth programs and training schemes which has seen an increased international presence on the racing scene and several Olympic sailors competing on the world stage.
Barton product will be available from Amarcord Marine in Galco Yachting Rope shops, online and at each of the 12 Galco Yachting Rope Shows scheduled this year, the first one already held in Palic, Serbia.
Mariann Gal, Owner of Galco Yachting Ropes / Amarcord Marine Ltd said, "We are enthusiastic about supplying the premium quality Barton products, made in the UK, to Hungarian sailors and our industrial customers. Barton, similar to Galco, is a traditional company with similar values and pays special attention to clients' needs, fast shipping and excellent customer service. An important factor of our collaboration is our relationship with CEO Suzanne Blaustone and the Barton Team. Their energy, dedication and passion for Barton products guarantees a fruitful partnership."
Suzanne Blaustone, CEO Barton Marine added, "We absolutely love working with Amarcord Marine as distributor for our extensive high-performance range of deck equipment for Hungarian sailors and also seeking further industrial targets. With retail outlets in key locations and a newly developed web shop, the Barton range will be more accessible in the region than ever before. Mariann's enthusiasm to support and serve the marketplace is infectious."
