ANNOUNCE ACQUISITION IN VALENCIA PLUS NEW EASY-TO-USE APP!

Since meeting with Maurits Stock, the owner of Balearic Fasteners S.L. in March 2021, it would appear that he has certainly not been daunted by the global gloom and has indeed made the bold move to seize a great opportunity on the mainland by acquiring a similar business based in Valencia. Previously known as Mar Prodet S.L., the former owner of the company felt it was time to retire and Maurits was presented with an opportunity he couldn’t refuse as it would provide Balearic Fasteners S.L. its much-wanted presence on the mainland of Spain. Maurits decided to keep Mar Prodet’s registered name of Inox Gram® not only to provide business continuity and recognition, but also as homage to the previous owner, who had passionately built the business up throughout his lifetime.

This exciting and important presence on the peninsula not only gives Maurits the positioning he wanted but has proven he is a man true to his word as his closing comment to me in our interview last year was “We will continue to build upon our already great reputation so that everyone knows about us, and we will become the No.1 go-to place for fasteners in the Mediterranean” – and he certainly didn’t disappoint!

Although Inox Gram® stocked a great deal of specialist fasteners already, with the addition of Balearic Fasteners’ incredibly extensive stock of stainless steel marine-grade fasteners, stainless steel marine hardware, as well as brass, bronze, aluminium, and high tensile steel 10.9 and 12.9, nylon fasteners in every size from M3 to M30, AND the ability to supply or fabricate fasteners in all kinds of materials like duplex stainless steel, super duplex or even titanium, this puts them firmly at the top of their game! They also stock imperial fasteners in UNC, UNF and BSW in addition to metric, in normal or fine pitch, making them absolute specialist suppliers not only to the nautical and marine industries, but also to nuclear power stations, solar plants and defence companies, amongst others.

But there is more! Not only did Balearic Fasteners S.L. already have a really great and easy-to-navigate website but they have gone one step further and now developed their own phone-based app. This will make the lives of their customers so much easier as it means they can now literally order whilst on the job and receive delivery within their 24-48 hour time frame – guaranteed! The app is real-time so you will never find something to be out of stock, if not already indicated within the app. This means that gone are the days of scribbling down notes and then ordering once back in the office!

The other major appeal with Balearic Fasteners S.L. is that you don’t have to buy in large amounts as can be the case with many other suppliers. If you require only 3 or 4 fasteners they are more than happy to oblige as they understand the nature of the business and the limitations that come with excess stock and storage. So no matter whether you want a couple of items or a whole batch, friendly customer service as well as speedy and reliable delivery is still guaranteed and even comes free when spending over €50!

Maurits went on to tell me that business, in general, has been really good, which is a great indication that life is going on despite certain restrictions. He explained that this is not just in the yachting industry but in most industries they work with – something that is very encouraging to hear and maybe a solid sign that good things lay ahead for all!

For Maurits and Balearic Fasteners S.L. things are looking very bright indeed and this is a testament to the importance they give to great customer service, innovation and the understanding of their clients’ needs. Whilst many businesses have failed over the past couple of years, many of them through no fault of their own, Balearic Fasteners S.L. not only held its head above the parapets of Son Castillo in Palma, but has actually laid stronger foundations by increasing its presence in the Mediterranean to ensure future success as the No.1 supplier of fasteners in the region. Congratulations guys!
