The 32nd Shiflet & Dickson Dealer Show Rocked Gastonia NC St Patrick’s Day Weekend

GASTONIA, NC (03.18.24) –The event kicked off Saturday night at 7pm with a St Patty’s Day party featuring live music along with food and refreshments in the company’s facility in Gastonia. The Sunday show ran from 9am until 5pm with over 20 brands represented in the showroom. Outside there were live vehicle demos. Food and refreshments are on the menu on show day Sunday also.

Shiflet & Dickson’s David Holland stated “This was our 32nd dealer show! Many dealers have not had the ability to go to a show recently to see the newest 12volt products. It was great to see so many dealers come to our show, network and see new products. With DK Electronics motorcycles and other vehicles in the house we definitely let our customers hear what these products sound like in a real world setting…. other than a YouTube video on a smartphone or laptop.”

*The show floor was busy very soon after the doors opened.*

Continuing Holland offered “We had trainings on Sunday with certain vendors as well as having reps on the show floor to meet with dealers and answer questions. Marcus conducted a super JVC training. Jacob Lucky hosted the KICKER training and Randy Goodwin handled the DB DRIVE training. Booth got compliments from dealers.”

*The Metra Install Bay booth got a lot of attention with Heise Lighting.*

*Dealers spent time checking out show specials.*

12volt brands showcased included Kicker, JVC Mobile, CRUX, Metra, DB Drive, Jensen, AudioControl, Polk Audio, PowerBass, Nakamichi, Audio Enhancers, SD Lighting, XPERT, Maximum Power, Planet Audio, MaxPro Film, Rydeen, LinksWell, SoundStream, Blaupunkt eBikes and King Boxes..

Allison Parker was set to let all know that MAXPRO is ready for the window tint season.

*Many attendees spent a lot of time outside checking out loud demo vehicles Saturday night.*

Concluding Holland stated “Our show, once again, was like having our large family come into our facility for a large get together. Boomer and Chris did a great job in the field letting their dealers know about our show. Our staff really stepped up to the plate helping put the showroom together and help across the board with all the details. Many of our vendors offered us special discounts before and after the show to make our dealers more profitable on their sales floors. The showroom floor was polished and shined like a diamond. Several dealers even let me know it looked brand new!”
