SEMA News - May 2010
More than 1,700 manufacturers exhibited at the 2009 SEMA Show, where they showcased their newest products to more than 50,000 buyers. The four-day, trade-only event serves as the best place for automotive specialty-equipment manufacturers to connect and do business with buyers.
An added benefit for those exhibiting at the SEMA Show is that thousands of media also gather at the event. The media are looking for the hottest and coolest new products and, as a result, exhibitors often find that the new products they unveiled at the SEMA Show are featured in leading consumer publications. The magazines on the newsstands at the beginning of the year are filled with new-product showcases from the SEMA Show. Here are just a few.
