Posted on December 16, 2017

To better serve the needs of our global marine customers, during 2017, Mackay increased sales and service facilities, inventory, and factory-trained technicians in many popular, but under-served ports.  This expansion resulted in 37 total Mackay locations worldwide.

In the past twelve months, Mackay created service stations in the following ports:

• Brazil (Rio de Janeiro)
• Canada (Montreal/Quebec & Barrington, Nova Scotia)
• India (Mumbai & Vizag)
• Spain (Valencia)
• China (Guangzhou, Ningbo, Shenzhen & Tianjin)

“Mackay Brazil fills a major gap in Brazil by stocking significant spare parts for immediate delivery. Mackay’s spares investment is focused on equipment that may hold the ship if not properly functioning,” President, Jeff Schlacks shared. Hiring a seasoned Director (Andre Britto), Mackay was able to build a superb staff in just months; obtain special importation licenses; and be awarded an Anatel license to sell satellite airtime and systems.
