Southco opens new support center
CONCORDVILLE, Pa. – Southco Inc., a manufacturer of access solutions for marine applications, has opened a new customer support center in West Melbourne, Fla., the company said recently.
The 4,600 square-foot facility includes a 1,400 square-foot product showroom that will display the marine products and services provided by the company. The new facility will also be used for product and application training, sales support, customer seminars and new product development, according to Southco’s release.
“We chose this location to be in closer proximity to our marine industry customers and to provide an unmatched level of service to boat builders,” said Richard Hipp, general manager of Southco Marine. “We believe that this new Florida facility will quickly become a valuable resource for the marine industry, where boat builders will have access to the suite of offerings from Southco Marine that focus on the look, feel, performance needs and style of the boat.”
Hipp said the product training to be offered at the Florida facility will include a formal, structured “Southco Marine Certified” program covering the full range of relevant offerings available from Southco Marine.
The new facility is accessible from I-95 and is less than an hour from the Orlando airport.
