Experts

Years of industry experience means we know our clients, understand their requirements, and respect their deadlines. Our services and processes are designed to reflect this. We will not just sell you products and expect you to go it alone. With Marshall’s you get so much more than just an engine or component.

How It All Began

Marshall’s began in a garden shed when Edward Marshall started repairing bicycles for the local community. He moved on to motorcycles and cars and opened his first garage in Reading nearly 100 years ago, later being joined by his sons after they proved themselves in other businesses. This family ethos and the values it brings runs through the Marshall’s business to this day, with third generation Robert Marshall now leading the company.

Testimonials

Marshall’s Industrial are a good company to deal with, knowledgeable and reliable. We have been very happy with the way they look after us and will definitely be using them for the foreseeable future.

We have been a customer of Marshall’s for over 25 years and can honestly say that they are the most reliable supplier we have. The depth of knowledge they have about the components we need is not available anywhere else.

Choosing an engine partner for our on-going development projects is a critical decision. I have never had a reason to regret working with Marshall’s Industrial, the team there look after us very well and even when things go wrong they are there for us.

Buying from the official distributor gives the assurance of getting the right maintenance parts direct from the manufacturer, having had bad experiences buying from the internet I will always use them for IMPCO products in the future.
