British diesel outboard engine manufacturer Cox Marine has officially opened a new multi-functional training and collaboration space at its UK manufacturing headquarters in Shoreham-by-Sea.
Named Drummond in honour of pioneering British marine engineer Victoria Drummond, the space recognises her contribution to maritime engineering and her legacy as one of the first female marine engineers to sail as a fully qualified officer in the British Merchant Navy.
The facilities are designed primarily to support technical and product training for Cox Marine’s global network of distributors, dealers, service partners and customers, providing a space for hands-on learning centred on the company’s Cox Marine V8 diesel outboard.
Technical training
The facility will complement Cox Marine’s existing global training programme and will also serve as a hub for wider collaboration, enabling internal team engagement, cross-functional meetings and company-wide briefings.
“The opening of this new space marks an important step for Cox Marine as we continue to grow internationally,” said George Bramley, CEO of Cox Marine.
“While its primary focus is technical training for our partners and customers, it also fosters collaboration across the business.
“Bringing teams, partners and customers together in one place strengthens knowledge sharing, alignment and ultimately the support we provide to operators worldwide.”
