After twenty successful years in the marine electronics industry in both the retail and distribution aspects of the business, I established my own firm. Richards Marine Marketing was formed in May of 1995 as an independent marine manufacturer’s representative company. In January 1999, my wife Cheryl joined the company. Cheryl brings to the company more than 20 years of sales and management experience in the Marine Electronics industry at the dealer level. She has also served as the Northwest Regional Director to NMEA. Richards Marine Marketing has grown considerably over the years by providing sales results to our manufacturers. Richards Marine is member of the National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) and the Northwest Marine Trade Association. In May 2021 Richards Marine Marketing merged with West Coast Sales with Mark as a area manager for the company.
