Firefighting and lifesaving equipment company Marine Fire Safety has opened a new distribution and service centre in Bodmin, Cornwall.
The new site is set to increase support and capacity for the Marine Fire Safety team in the Southwest of England.
It will provide a greater stock holding of products, as well as provide a central location for the local collection and drop-off of liferafts and lifejackets in need of servicing.
“The opening of this site will have huge logistical advantages to us as a business, which in turn will offer great benefits to our local customers,” said Mark Bresnahan, MD of Marine Fire Safety. “We have a large customer base in Cornwall which includes fishing and small commercial operators, all of whom operate to strict schedules and need the assurance of full compliance.”
The increased capacity to hold stock will mean lead times to supply products are reduced. The company will also be able to service a greater number of products.
The new site will be managed by Gareth Hall and will also offer facilities for the safe disposal of unwanted or outdated flares. The collection and drop-off of equipment for servicing, will need to be pre-arranged with the team.
