Los Angeles based LEHR Inc manufacturers of the award winning LEHR propane outboard motor range have
appointed Global Marine Associates as their representatives for Europe.

Under this agreement GMA will manage the continued expansion of  LEHR propane outboard range throughout the European market with the appointment of distribution partners in each country

LEHR was founded by Captain Bernardo Herzer in 2004, a trend setting entrepreneur and inventor with a deep passion
to contribute to creating a cleaner planet through the use of environmentally friendly technologies and he was granted the first of many international patents relating the use of Propane as a fuel source in small engines. Today Herzer is proud to see that consumers are readily adopting this technology that
will improve the marine environment worldwide

Propane is widely used in other industries as an alternative fuel option where common applications include coaches, buses, generators, forklift trucks etc and now LEHR have applied the same technology to address the need for a cleaner fuel in the marine market segment with the benefits including:

  • No pollutant waste into the water
  • Zero evaporative emissions
  • Easier to use (no choke / no priming / no carbon deposits / no winterizing)
  • Lower running costs

LEHR currently offer 3 engine sizes, 2.5hp, 5.0hp and 9.9hp (for more information visit the website at www.golehr.com )

Herzer, CEO at LEHR said “We wanted to be sure that we had a robust plan in place before moving further forward in Europe and GMA have been extremely helpful and proactive in assisting us in the creation of a professional sales programme that will allow us to progress in this important market”
Martin Harding, Managing Director at GMA reported that “We are very excited to be representing LEHR in Europe and to have been given the opportunity to further develop distribution of this innovative product line. During the past few months we have been working closely with the team at LEHR to develop a European plan are now in the
process of analyzing our distributor and/or partnership options in all countries”

LEHR will be exhibiting their outboards within the GMA area of the American Pavilion at the
forthcoming METS in Amsterdam (Nov 19-21)
