Ron Savidant, President of Maritime Marine Supply announced that their company is proud to have been recognized by Plastimo with their Best Growth Award at their 2025 Distributor Meeting, an honour that highlights outstanding performance across Plastimo’s worldwide distribution network.

What makes the achievement especially meaningful is where the journey began. Founded in a small coastal community, Maritime Marine Supply has grown steadily by staying focused on service, reliability, and deep connections within the marine industry. That commitment has helped transform the company into one of Canada’s leading marine distributors, serving dealers, marinas, and professionals from coast to coast.

This recognition reflects the strength of the partnership between Plastimo and Maritime Marine Supply, as well as the dedication of a team that understands the demands of life on the water. It stands as a reminder that with the right values, local roots can support global growth.
