Marine Parts & Accessories

What Marine Parts & Accessories does

Marine Parts & Accessoires sàrl (Marine Parts & Accessories) is a Switzerland-incorporated online retailer and distributor of marine parts and accessories, founded in 2016 and headquartered in Estavayer-le-Lac. The company operates a multi-language (FR/DE/EN/IT) e-commerce platform offering components for boats, including engine consumables, marine refrigeration, heating systems, trim control, electrical/power management and onboard solar. Its catalog spans recognized brands such as Liqui Moly Marine, Webasto, Vitrifrigo, Wallas, Zipwake, Mastervolt and Sunware, positioning the business as an aggregated sourcing point for parts that buyers would otherwise need to source from multiple OEMs.

The company serves both retail end-customers (boat owners, vanlife users) and B2B buyers including boat builders, fleet operators, industrial buyers and hotel/restaurant clients, reflecting a deliberate diversification across marine and adjacent verticals. Pricing is per SKU in CHF and EUR, consistent with a transactional distribution model rather than a subscription or enterprise contract structure. Public materials indicate an employee base of 1-10, no disclosed external funding and no M&A history, consistent with an owner-operated distribution business.

Recent commercial signals include confirmed participation at Boot Düsseldorf 2026, the addition of higher-ticket product categories (dynamic trim, refrigeration, solar) and an explicit B2B partner offering alongside the B2C storefront. The company has no stated AI/ML capabilities and operates on a standard e-commerce catalog architecture, with revenue visibility limited to per-transaction markups on distributed brands.

Direct peers

• SVB (Sailing Yacht BV): Leading European (Germany-headquartered) online retailer of marine parts, equipment, and accessories serving boat owners and trade customers with multi-language e-commerce. Directly comparable in business model, SKU breadth, and target customer base to MPA's Swiss marine distribution.
• West Marine: Largest US-based specialty retailer of marine parts, accessories, and hardware for recreational boating. Comparable as an authorized multi-brand distributor with both e-commerce and physical presence serving boaters and marine professionals.
• Defender Marine: US-based marine outfitter operating a large e-commerce catalog of marine parts, safety equipment, electronics, and accessories. Comparable as a multi-brand specialist serving boat owners with technical support.
• Boatoon: European online marketplace/retailer for marine parts and accessories with multi-country reach. Comparable as a digital-first marine parts distributor serving European boaters, including Switzerland-adjacent markets.
• Fisheries Supply: Specialty marine and fishing supply retailer offering parts, electronics, safety gear, and accessories. Comparable as a long-established specialty retailer serving both recreational and professional marine customers.

Broad incumbents

• Lalizas: Global marine safety and equipment manufacturer-distributor offering a broad portfolio of lifejackets, lighting, mooring, and navigation products. Overlaps with MPA's safety/navigation retail categories (Mob+, Hella NaviLED) but operates as a manufacturer rather than a specialist distributor.
• Webasto: Major OEM manufacturer of heating, air conditioning, and roof systems for automotive, marine, and camper applications — and one of MPA's core brand principals. Comparable as a supplier whose products MPA distributes; represents both upstream and competitive threat if Webasto went direct.
• Mastervolt: Manufacturer of marine electrical systems (batteries, chargers, inverters, shore power) — a principal brand MPA distributes. Comparable as a vertically integrated supplier whose direct-to-consumer strategy could threaten MPA's distribution role.

Emerging players

• Reimo: Leading European retailer of camper-van conversion parts, accessories, and equipment. Comparable as an adjacent vertical peer given MPA's CamperVanlife segment expansion into heating, refrigeration, and solar categories.

Regional players

• Yachtshop.ch: Swiss/regional online retailer of yacht parts and accessories. Comparable as a domestic Swiss specialist competing in the same end-customer pool with overlapping product categories (marine electronics, hardware, comfort).
