MERCURY MARINE PRESIDENT JOHN PFEIFER ON THEIR ACQUISITION OF POWER PRODUCTS

Andy Adams and John Pfeifer

 

Oct 2nd, 2018

This August, Mercury Marine announced the acquisition of the Power Products group of companies. Boating Industry Canada traveled to a special media event in New York City where we had an opportunity to interview John Pfeiffer, president of Mercury Marine to ask him about this development.
