FuelParts and Marathon Warehouse Distribution announce huge range expansion
Date: Monday 19 December 2022
SMP Europe and Marathon Warehouse Distribution, the leading distributor of its FuelParts brand in the UK, have announced a large expansion of range portfolio and availability, as the engine management specialists look to strengthen the FuelParts positioning in the market.
FuelParts was acquired by SMP Europe in late 2011 and has since benefitted from SMP Europe’s significant investments into R&D, technical and engineering expertise. The brand now brings to market a larger number of emissions, engine management, fuelling and ignition parts than ever before.
Ross Toomey, Managing Director at SMP Europe, comments:
“Late 2011 saw the acquisition of FuelParts UK, a distributor of ignition, engine management, exhausts, catalytic converters, and rotating electrics.
“Combined with our existing expertise in the engine management and ignition spaces, this has led to significant growth in the scale and quality of the FuelParts brand in recent years, with extended vehicle parc coverage, and extensively tested products that perform amongst the best in the aftermarket.”
Toomey adds:
“Our goal is to now reaffiliate customers with the FuelParts brand in partnership with established national distributors Marathon Warehouse Distribution. Customers will be able to benefit from their excellent stock levels and availability across the wide range of product lines, on a same day delivery basis.”
Key products in the FuelParts brand stocked through Marathon Warehouse Distribution include Oxygen Sensors, EGR Valves, ABS Sensors, Fuel Vapour Valves, Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensors, Air Mass Meters and Throttle Bodies.
Colin Fisher, Sales and Marketing Director at Marathon Warehouse Distribution, adds:
"We have had a long association with SMP Europe, and we are delighted with the latest range extension of engine management products in the FuelParts brand.
“With such a large range of part numbers across many different product groups, engine management is a clearly a key product group for a warehouse distributor to focus on. Our new enhanced availability across all FuelParts product groups now gives motor factors fast, frequent, same day access across the UK on a vast range of parts that would be unviable for factors to stock.”
