On Tuesday 16th July marine marketing agency, MAA, celebrated its 10th anniversary. To mark the occasion the MAA team enjoyed lunch at the Island Sailing Club in Cowes, travelling in style from Gosport onboard Wetwheels Solent, one of the Wetwheels' Foundation's motorboats.

The agency was set up by leading marine industry figure, Mike Shepherd, in 2009 and since then has experienced consistently strong growth. Mike says: "This anniversary is a real milestone for us. Looking back, the last ten years have flown by and I am delighted with how the business has evolved. I look forward to seeing what the next ten years will bring."

MAA started life as the Marine Advertising Agency and remains fully integrated in the marine leisure market offering companies a full spectrum of marketing and communication services.

"We have expanded again in recent months, adding even more specialist services to our marketing menu. MAA's staff is its biggest asset and I am very lucky to work with such a talented team of people," continues Mike.

Now firmly established as one of the foremost agencies in the marine industry, MAA's range of services covers every aspect of marketing from advertising, PR, communications and media buying to brand development, websites, eCommerce, email and digital marketing campaigns and social media.

MAA hosts the annual MAA Press Lunch and has just announced Monday 18th November as the date for the pre-METS MAA Press Dinner in Amsterdam.
