The CMA EXPO Scored Big on the Event Floor and in Packed Training Sessions

TORONTO, CANADA (04.06.23) – From Friday, March 24th, through Sunday, March 26th, over 300 mobile enhancement experts from retailers across Canada assembled in Toronto to attend the first-ever CMA Expo dealer training and networking event. The CMA EXPO was a collaborative effort to connect retailers, distributors and leading top Industry trainers. The team at CMA Networks executed the event which showcased booths and training seminars from the leading Canadian 12v distributors which featured over 80 brands, making it a unique offering in the Mobile Electronics Industry.

What made the event unique was the ability for dealers to work with their sales representatives to place booking orders and kick off the 2023 season with some serious momentum and knowledge. The success of the CMA EXPO can be attributed to the unwavering support of Canadian retailers, the tireless efforts of the industry leading trainers, the incredible participation of the exhibiting distributors and their partnering brands. In addition, each company had access to classroom-style training rooms to provide in-person education sessions on product features and applications.

Frank Spezzano, the President and Executive Producer of CMA Networks, noted, “being able to provide retailers across Canada with an event that was custom-tailored to our country’s unique business model worked perfectly to launch the 2023 season. The support from all the companies and retailers involved was remarkable.. We are honoured to have been chosen to facilitate this distinguished gathering of professionals.

” Ben Woo, Content Director and Webcast Host for CMA Networks added, “I think the appetite for the Canadian 12V industry to get back to the in-person experience that only a live event can deliver was definitely long overdue. There’s still a buzz about the ‘Delivering the Best Car Audio Systems’ and ‘The A to Z of Car Audio Retailer Marketing’ presentations from Friday and Saturday evening.”
