Registration for the 51st RV Aftermarket Conference in August will open this coming Monday, April 25.
The conference, which is entirely focused on the aftermarket, will be in San Antonio Aug. 8-11.
Organizers say the goal of the conference is to support a great parts and accessory purchasing experience for consumers that will ultimately benefit and improve the RV aftermarket supply chain as a whole. To reach this goal, the RV Aftermarket Conference enables aftermarket suppliers and distributors to meet in one-on-one “appointment sessions” to discuss current product lines and pitch new products coming to market. This year, the event will launch with a brand new meetings application that will make setting appointments for suppliers more open and easier than ever before.
In addition to the individual meetings, the conference will feature plenty of networking opportunities; the annual golf outing and Aftermarket Awards event; and a workshop breakout session on understanding your brand perception and how to improve your relationship with consumers. Attendees will also hear from thought-leaders on the state of the RV industry.
“The RV Aftermarket Conference is the crown jewel for our segment of the industry,” said RV Aftermarket Committee Chair John Tinghitella. “We’re excited to relaunch this signature event for our industry and can’t wait to deliver a successful, enriching event for suppliers, distributors, agents, media, and guests!”
The RV aftermarket contributes 3,187 jobs and more than $750 million in total economic output on a yearly basis, according to the RV Industry Association. RVIA membership is required to attend the conference.
