HASTINGS, FL – September 2025 – Laborde Products has added Jones Diesel & Marine of Hastings, FL, to its dealer network, expanding coverage along Florida’s East Coast and the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW). As part of the partnership, Jones Diesel & Marine will carry Mitsubishi marine engines and Laborde Power Products (LPP), giving operators in the region faster access to service, training, and parts.
“We’ve seen the demand here firsthand,” said Josh Jones, Jones Diesel & Marine. “Operators along the ICW want reliable power and a shop they can talk to face to face. Partnering with Laborde lets us deliver that, backed by the right parts pipeline and engine support.”
That local-first perspective is exactly what Laborde looks for in a dealer, pairing community knowledge with the resources to keep operators running.
“Jones Diesel & Marine gives East Coast operators a direct connection to Mitsubishi Marine Engines and Laborde Power Products,” said Brian Laborde, President & CEO of Laborde Products. “Their team is trained, stocked, and ready to respond, which means less downtime and more reliable service for ICW and coastal workboats.”
The expansion strengthens Laborde’s footprint along the East Coast, where ICW operators contend where ICW operators face demanding conditions and heavy traffic. Having a trusted dealer presence in Hastings means crews can count on local expertise, timely parts, and dependable support without waiting on distant service providers.
