Quality Marine Clothing partners with SeaKeepers South Pacific

The International SeaKeepers Society South Pacific has confirmed a new partnership with Quality Marine Clothing (QMC), which will serve as the official uniform sponsor for the chapter’s outreach, research, and education programmes across the region.

The collaboration aims to enhance the visibility and cohesion of SeaKeepers’ growing team of staff, volunteers, and citizen scientists throughout New Zealand, Australia, and the wider Pacific Islands. The partnership also reflects both organisations’ shared focus on professionalism, functionality, and sustainability within the yachting and marine science sectors.

Custom-branded apparel for outreach and expeditions

As part of the agreement, QMC will supply custom-branded uniforms for SeaKeepers South Pacific personnel, including team members, education programme leaders, and citizen scientists operating in the field.

Melissa White, director of SeaKeepers South Pacific, said, “We’re honoured to have QMC on board as our uniform sponsor. Not only does their gear look great, but it also brings our team together. Wearing the same uniform helps us feel connected and easily recognised when we’re out doing outreach, research, and conservation work across the region.”

The uniform rollout supports SeaKeepers’ continued expansion in the South Pacific, including its network of DISCOVERY Yachts, collaborative science missions, and community-based marine education programmes.

Strengthening identity with purpose-built marine clothing

Established as a leading apparel supplier in the Australasian maritime industry, QMC designs and delivers professional uniform solutions tailored to the demands of crew and marine personnel. Its partnership with SeaKeepers is seen as an opportunity to further align with purpose-led organisations that are active in ocean protection and scientific engagement.

Duncan Curnow, director of sales and marketing at QMC, commented, “We’ve admired the work SeaKeepers does to bridge science and the yachting community. We’re proud to support their mission with uniforms that help their team look professional, stay comfortable, and represent their cause wherever the work takes them.”
