Sanford Sound Continues to Move Forward with a New Store and Staff Trip to KnowledgeFest Orlando

SANFORD, ME (07.15.2021) – Monday, January 4th, marked the ‘soft opening’ of the new 8000 square foot Sanford Sound store in Sanford, ME. Now, after just over 6 record months, staff members recently returned from KnowledgeFest in Orlando. “We have had a remarkable 6 months business wise and KnowledgeFest in Orlando with store staff Kevin O’Malley, Andrew Lockhart and myself was very rewarding. We closed the store for a few days to recharge after Orlando and now we are ready to hit hard as we are booked in the bay through August” Owner Jack Bogard related.

As the new Sanford Sound location was set to open on January 4th, 2021.

Continuing, “Orlando was very good and it was great to see people face-to-face and catch up with friends and vendors. Spending time on the show floor to see new products and amazing demo vehicles was terrific. Spending time in booths and aisles with other shop owners and staffs added so much to understanding the current conditions in the marketplace. Kevin and Andrew got a lot out of that along with the tech training sessions. Kenwood and JVC product and PAC integration sessions were definitely spot on” Bogard offered.

The new DS18 Jeep demo was a standout in Orlando Bogard noted.

Next up for Sanford Sound is the company’s 25th Annual Show N’ Shine on Sunday, July 25th at the new location. A car show, NADBL Bass Competition, Live Band, Trophies and Give aways are on the schedule plus famous Hoot Dawgs on the grill with refreshments. Missing this year will be the Bikini Car Wash due to time requirements.

The new Sanford Sound location totals 8,000 square feet with a 2 level layout. The ground floor features showroom areas for Car and Home Audio, meeting room, office space plus customer waiting room and break area. The full basement area is set up as a large installation bay area, extensive fabrication shop plus large storage areas. Floors on both levels were steam cleaned and resurfaced.

“We are the place for Car Audio and Home AV in Sanford and surrounding area in Maine” Bogard stated.

In the showroom there are raised areas to spotlight demo vehicles. The Sanford Sound RZR 900 is spotlighted and decked with Memphis Audio. “Since acquiring the RZR 900 as a demo vehicle our Powersports sales increased at least three fold. Another favorite is the Classic Sanford Sound Gremlin. The NavAtlas handheld 2-way radios we won as a 12volt Spin-To-Win prize have been great around the shop” Bogard stated.

Sanford Sound has been ‘The Place’ for Home AV and Car Audio products in Sanford and the surrounding area for over 25 years.
