Registration is now open for GIE+EXPO 2018, and with the combination of expanded Wednesday hours, dynamic education and many new exhibitors, it's shaping up to be even bigger than the last three record-setting years.
This year's GIE+EXPO, set for Oct. 18-20, will include the first-ever People, Process, Profit Boot Camp and free 30-Minute Dealer Workshops at The Dealer Resource Center presented by experts from the Bob Clements team, Equipment Dealers Assn. and United Equipment Dealers Assn.
More than 22,600 people attended, representing a 12% increase in registration over last year. Thirty-three percent of dealer and 44% of lawn and landscape attendees were first timers.
The utility task vehicle (UTV) market grew 16% in 2014, 8% in 2015 and will grow this year, according to Power Products Marketing, a research and consulting firm that works with OEMs, suppliers and others.
The annual tradeshow is set for October 19-21 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville and online registration is available at www.gie-expo.com.
The UTV industry just got a new home and dealer training program, UTV University, at the Green Industry and Equipment Expo (GIE+EXPO) and Hardscape North America, the world’s largest trade show for the garden, lawn and outdoor power equipment industries.
