The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, the leading boat show in the United States, has confirmed the success of the Italian brand, Azimut|Benetti in the USA, as the shipyard announced a US sales success of $50 million USD. This exciting result accelerates the brand’s growth with the goal of becoming the top ranking yacht builder in the USA.
The good health of Azimut Yachts in America is also underscored by the rise in the number of visits to the stand – up 20% on last year – not only by people from the US, but also from Canadian and South America.
“Our objective is to become the top-ranking shipyard in the USA over the next two years. The sale of 15 yachts worth about US $50 million at FLIBS 2018 is the best way to describe the outstanding success achieved by Azimut Yachts, the leading foreign shipyard in the United States. This success rewards our propositions, which increasingly feature sophisticated content in terms of design and technological innovation, and our ability to offer outstanding local reach and a five-star after sales assistance service. We’ve achieved this result, which makes America the brand’s main market, representing 38% of total value of production, thanks to the partnership with Marine Max, the most highly reputed dealership on this market”. – Federico Ferrante, President of Azimut|Benetti USA
Florida continues to confirm its position as the area with the best sales figures, followed by the Northeast and Midwest, while the lines best loved by US owners are the Flybridge Collection, followed by the Grande Collection, of which a 27-meter model was sold at Fort Lauderdale, the big sister of the 25-meter yacht that made its American debut at FLIBS.
It’s an exciting finish to the year and expectations for the coming year are looking bright as America continues to embrace the yachting lifestyle.
