The company, a manufacturer of motorcycle accessories, has rapidly grown it's US distribution network with hundreds of motorcycle dealers in 27 States already selling its products. The company choose Jacksonville as it's US HQ because of the region’s deep water Port, available talent, quality of life and ease of access to South America and the United Kingdom.

The Company now has trade lines operating with six South American countries.

 

"I am honoured to accept this award on behalf of Oxford Products USA who are a small but highly motivated team of people", said Eric McFarlane after receiving the award from JAXUSA International Committee Chair, Giselle Carson. "We are all excited about the growth potential the US market has to offer, particularly as our product range is expanding and taking us into additional market sectors".
