The new Mercury process reinforces our ability to make a better product“This new and expanded process reinforces our ability to make a better product for our customers,” said John Pfeifer, Mercury Marine president. “This expansion will improve our flexibility, quality and improve the environment. It also reinforces our commitment to growth in Fond du Lac and sets Mercury up nicely for future growth.” Since 2009, Mercury Marine has invested more than $730 million in capital investments and R&D.
