The RV Aftermarket Awards program was designed to honor and recognize individuals, suppliers and distributors, who are committed to excellence and growth in the aftermarket industry, as well as highlight the newest and most popular products available in the aftermarket industry. The Aftermarket Product of the Year Award recognizes new products in the RV aftermarket industry that have entered the marketplace.

The Jim Barker Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes individuals who have significantly contributed to the success of the RV aftermarket industry. In 2018, Bob Brammer, president of Stromberg Carlson Products, was selected as the recipient.
