Richard Britt is the new owner-operator of Marine Carpeting. Britt was originally a firefighter for eight years prior to purchasing the facility. He stated, “Very smart people said that this would be a good idea for me and my family. So, I took the opportunity.”

Britt has been the owner for a few weeks, but Marine Carpeting has been a trusted name for 20 years, under the previous owner Rick Kornmeier. Marine Carpeting is a retail store that sells marine carpets in various colors and materials, marine vinyl boat parts, adhesive supplies, and many other boat-related equipment. This is Britt’s first time being a business owner, so he stated that “this is a whole new experience.” However, he’s not navigating this journey alone. With the support of Thad Whitaker, Office Manager, and Shane Kornmeier, Warehouse Manager, Britt is confident in his ability to learn the ropes of the business.
