History
Gulf Coast Marine Supply is an old-line general supply house. We were founded in 1935 by Marvin Mostellar Sr. In the early years we catered to the ships trading in the Port of Mobile. We handled anything and everything a ship might require. One stop shopping and satisfying our customers’ needs is how we grew our business. As Mobile grew we became more industrially oriented. To this day our Ship Chandlery philosophy of one stop shopping is apparent in our approach to the market. Eighty plus years ago we began with one line of consigned paint and a used car. Over the years as opportunities to add or better our product offering availed themselves, we did so.
Today we represent many of the premier lines in the industry. Gulf Coast Marine maintains stock on forty-two thousand unique products. Our product offering is one of the most diverse and complete in our area.
