Bike & Boat World becomes dealer of Nord Star boats in Finland

Bike & Boat World, Finland’s biggest powersports vehicles and marine retail chain, and a part of the Otto Brandt group, becomes exclusive distributor for Finnish Nord Star boats, starting 24.03.2014. Nord Star boats will thus be sold at Boat World Helsinki (former Telva Marine) and Bike & Boat World Turku and Tampere in the future.

“We wanted to strengthen our presence in the Helsinki metropolitan area. Bike & Boat World is a great partner for us with their modern stores and extremely professional staff”, says Olli Lindkvist, CEO of Linex-Boat Oy.

With the dealership of Nord Star boats, Bike & Boat World can further expand their offering to boating customers and offer great possibilities for the trading of products. As boats can be traded for motorbikes, ATV’s, mopeds and snowmobiles, it is easy and convenient to change from one product and hobby to another.

"Co-operation with Linex-Boat Oy is very significant for us. We have been looking for a high quality domestic cruiser and commuter boat for quite some time. Nord Star boats are the perfect solution with their 24-40 foot selection and gives us a great opportunity to futher widen our product and service offering. We are further excited about working with another family owned business who works with long-term objectives and has a great attitude!”, says Mika Kouki, CEO of Bike & Boat World.
