Ribbon cutting this Friday for Englund Marine new location

On, Friday, May 5th, we will be holding our Grand Opening at our new location, 590 W. Waterfront Drive in Eureka. 

There will be a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Eureka Chamber of Commerce at 10 am, drawings, giveaways, and special deals on clothing, boots, and rain gear all day long. All customers and community members are encouraged to stop by, join in the festivities, and take advantage of the great sale prices. We will be open from 8 am to 5:30 pm. 

Englund Marine has been serving the Eureka community for more than 25 years. In 1995, Englund Marine purchased Davenport Marine at the foot of Commercial Street on the dock and we have been serving commercial and recreational fishermen since. We outgrew the space that we were in and we were off the beaten path, we lacked public exposure. Our new store is more visible to the public eye, and we have expanded the products that we carry. 

Englund Marine was founded on July 22nd, 1944 by Axel & Freda Englund in a small storefront in Astoria, OR. It continues today as a family-run business. Axel’s son, Jon Englund, is the current CEO. There are also 4 grandsons active in the company; Kurt Englund works at the Astoria store and is the Company’s President, Jay Englund manages the Raft Shop in Warrenton, Dean Fleck is the manager at the Newport, OR store and Mark Fleck manages the Coos Bay store. 

Englund Marine prides itself in being the go-to store in their communities for boating, outdoor clothing, and industrial products. The company has products for commercial and recreational fishermen, professional tradesmen, and weekend warriors. They also have full-service rigging shops for fabrication, splicing, custom rigging, and hydraulics in two of the seven store locations.
