Building on the success of the High-Performance Service Center, introduced at GIE+EXPO in 2009, the new High-Performance Parts and Accessories Department is planned to provide power equipment dealers with an informative mix of education, displays and demonstrations on how to maximize the profit-making potential of their own shops.
This year, ten sponsoring companies have teamed up with Bob Clements International, Heftee Industries and Ideal Computer Systems to provide back-to-back presentations, panel discussions and guided tours each day throughout a 5,000-square-foot layout of a model parts department that will include new counter display and shelving ideas along with the latest in parts management tools and technology.
Visitors to the High-Performance Parts and Accessories Department can look, learn and listen by meeting one-on-one with program sponsors or by sitting in on daily panel discussions. The value of the High-Performance pavilion is that it enables dealers to focus on one of the most valuable segments of their business parts and service.
This year, an extensive list of sponsors will be on hand to share their expertise with dealers visiting their booths located within the High-Performance Parts and Accessories Department. Sponsors include: ARI Network Services Inc., Ariens Company, Briggs & Stratton Corporation, Husqvarna Professional Products, Hustler Turf Equipment, Kohler Company, MTD Products Inc., Schiller Grounds Care, Stens Corporation, Stihl Inc.
