ProPride Industries, a family-owned company for more than 50 years, has expanded its reach to consumers by recently forming ProPride Marine, a division dedicated to providing replacement parts for maritime vessels.

Whether it’s parts for inboard or outboard motors, or replacement components for other watercraft, ProPride Marine’s wide selection will certainly benefit boating enthusiasts.

“It’s a good fit because we’re already in the space of recreational vehicles -- boating is a good fit,” said Peter Fougerousse, VP of E-Commerce and Digital Marketing at ProPride Industries. “There is a lot of crossover between different product lines -- products and tools -- that work in both industries.”

A strong relationship with suppliers has given ProPride Marine an advantage over competitors who may be struggling with shortages and/or delays.

“It’s especially important because there is a shortage of many types of propellers, and we have a lot of alternative products,” Fougerousse said. “Beyond that, we have a replacement prop for pretty much every vessel out there.”

ProPride Marine has solutions for all types of watercraft and features brands such as CDI Electronics, Michigan Wheel, OJ Propellers, Volvo Penta and UFlex, among several other industry leading brands. PPM’s product line includes propellers, control cables, along with a robust stock of other accessories.

“We take a great deal of pride in knowing that we offer such high-quality brands that will enhance your boating experience,” Fougerousse continued. “We’re confident that our parts, accessories and other components are of the highest standard -- and we stand behind them.”

Although ProPride Marine is a recent addition, its values and foundation mimic that of its parent company. Continuing to build on a proven method -- one that’s more than 50 years old -- has been the mission since Day 1 of ProPride Marine’s inception.

“ProPride was founded with one single focus -- that focus being able to develop a culture of professional pride in everything we do, in order to create an exceptional customer experience with every customer interaction, part and service we offer,” Fougerousse explained.
