The Kadey-Krogen Group is expanding its network into the Great Lakes and midwest region with the addition of Schwartz & Co. Yacht Sales of Chicago. Schwartz will now serve as a new and used dealer for models of Krogen and Summit yachts, continuing to represent American Tug.
“This fits in perfectly with who we are and who we serve,” says Michael Schwartz, managing director of Schwartz & Co. Yacht Sales. “We are highly sought-after from buyers as advisors in the acquisition of unique cruising and sailing vessels capable of reaching picturesque anchorages on distant shores of the Great Lakes region. We work closely with boaters seeking suitable vessels for America’s Great Loop cruising grounds, and we also represent manufacturers whose vessels are uniquely suited for the Great Loop.”
Joining The Kadey-Krogen Group is an optimal choice, adds Schwartz. “We have worked extensively creating community in the Great Lakes region for American Tug owners and have substantially expanded the Great Lakes fleet. We see Krogen and Summit as a similar mutually beneficial relationship for us to help grow sales and community in a region. We are incredibly excited to work with Kadey-Krogen Group President Tucker West and the entire Kadey-Krogen team. Krogen and Summit will make American Tug better, American Tug will make Kadey and Summit better, and the involvement of Schwartz & Co. Yacht Sales will take the entire relationship to a new, exciting level.”
Schwartz’s proven ability to sell boats and maintain high resale values, along with its great community offering for owners and buyers, makes it a perfect fit within The Kadey-Krogan family. “We immediately identified how our companies will complement each other and, most importantly, how the customers will benefit,” says Kadey-Krogen Group president Tucker West “Schwartz is the logical addition to our extensive network of buyers, owners, and partner stakeholders.”
