History
From a family of entrepreneurs, Bry's General Merchandise was founded by M. Edwin Bry (Ed) and his wife Lucille. Bry's started out as a general merchandise and government surplus store for 10 years prior to expanding to its new (and current) location on Highway 35 in Neptune, NJ.
In 1957, the first Johnson outboard motors, Flying Finn, DuraTech, and MFG boats were displayed for sale and the business became known as Bry's Marine. Through hard work and the acquisition of the water front properties in Neptune, Bry's Marine expanded to a full service marina with the first concrete launching ramp and floating docks on the Shark River. Two full acres of parking and storage yards currently make up the landscape at Bry's Marine on Shark River.
Further expansion in 1972 by the purchase of a 1.5 acre site with building, also on Highway 35, allowed Bry's Marine to become a full sales and service dealership. This latest acquisition enabled the display of new and used boats, outboard motors and boat, utility and enclosed trailers.
Bry's Marine has been family owned and operated sine 1946. In the 1980s their sons Bill and Jim joined the company. The brothers then took over the business and continued forward, solidifying Bry’s Marine as a neighborhood staple in the Neptune community. As Jim passed in July 2023, Bill now runs sales and operations.
Our goals have remained the same: customers first, sales with integrity, and service with conviction as though you were our own family.
