The RV Industry Association has announced that RV suppliers, distributors and manufacturer reps should mark their calendars for the second week in August, as the annual industry conference focused on the RV aftermarket segment will return August 9-12, at the Embassy Suites at Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta.

With the conference’s cancellation last year due to the pandemic, RVIA said it is excited to host an in-person event this year. This year’s event marks the 50th anniversary of the conference.

During the event, aftermarket suppliers and distributors meet in one-on-one “appointment sessions” to pitch new products while taking advantage of key networking opportunities. In addition to networking with colleagues to develop strategies and opportunities for future growth, attendees will hear from thought-leaders on the state of the RV industry.

According to the RV Industry Association’s Economic Impact Study, the RV aftermarket is a significant and growing segment of the industry contributing 3,187 jobs, $272 million dollars in wages and over $750 million in total economic output on a yearly basis.

“The RV Aftermarket Conference is a can’t-miss event in the industry for distributors, suppliers and other companies to share best practices and success stories,” said RVIA President and CEO Craig Kirby. “With growing consumer interest in RVing, it’s more important than ever that the industry is focused on working to deliver an exceptional parts and accessory purchasing experience.”

The RV Aftermarket Conference is open to all RV Industry Association members. Event registration will be opening in April and more details will be forthcoming. For questions, please email AftermarketConference@RVIA.org.
