Established in 2010, PartfinderMarine.com is a specialist B2B platform connecting marine buyers with verified suppliers of commercial marine spare parts, equipment, and technical services worldwide. The platform helps reduce sourcing friction by allowing buyers to search supplier stock, issue RFQs, and connect directly with marine industry companies across a wide range of vessel and engine applications. Unlike open listing sites, supplier registrations and listings are manually reviewed to help improve data quality and reduce inactive or misleading content.

PartfinderMarine.com supports shipowners, managers, purchasing teams, traders, workshops, and technical operators involved in the day-to-day sourcing of marine spare parts and equipment worldwide. We operate as a platform connecting buyers and suppliers rather than acting as a trading intermediary, allowing companies to communicate and trade directly.

Source2Sea combines the reach of a global maritime marketplace with the intelligence of a procurement platform. We enable ‘Shop with Insights. Spend with Confidence’ across provisions, stores, spare parts and other vessel supplies through structured digital catalogues, intelligent procurement tools, actionable insights and recommendations. By connecting shipping companies, ship managers and caterers with a global network of maritime suppliers, Source2Sea creates value beyond the individual transaction.

The marketplace provides global supplier reach, greater choice and structured digital catalogues, while the platform transforms the maritime industry's strongest data foundation into greater spend visibility, smarter purchasing decisions, increased automation and more efficient supplier collaboration and growth. Developed in close collaboration with leading shipping companies and suppliers, Source2Sea already supports global customers at scale and continues to expand its international supplier network and platform capabilities.

Established in 1991, Franman provides a wide range of marine equipment for newbuilding projects, spare parts distribution, emergency and maintenance services, while also representing shipyards for ship repairs.

Franman has always aspired to be a leader in its field. This has fueled its drive to expand its partnerships and hence its offerings to shipowners.Over the past 35 years, Franman has equipped more than 6,200 newbuildings. Today, the company serves over 770 shipping companies through a global network of more than 230 equipment manufacturers, shipyards, suppliers and service providers.

In 2020 Franman received the Efkranti Shipping Award for “Best Strategic Communication” and in 2021 was the proud recipient of the Lloyds List Piraeus International Centre Award.

Culture, ethics, work environment and the development of new executives are some of the pillars that make Franman stand out. In recognition of its dedication to creating such an exceptional workplace, Franman was awarded the “Great Place to Work 2022” prize.
