1) Unmatched Networking Opportunities: This convention is your best chance of the year to meet wholesalers and independent reps. Your products are exceptional, bringing efficiency and innovation to agriculture. But it’s not enough that we know this – the right distributors and reps need to know it too. This event is a structured, friendly environment where you can expand your company’s market presence. There is no better opportunity to meet distributors and reps who can expand your company’s footprint in the market.

2) Business Conversations: This is one of two annual opportunities to engage in deep, meaningful business conversations sponsored by the ¹û¶³´«Ã½. Whether you’re discussing paint quality, HR challenges, or exploring potential business opportunities, the insights gained here are invaluable.

Recently, we’ve heard from member companies interested in adding new product lines or refining their strategies. There’s no better place to explore these possibilities than at FEMA conventions.

3) Industry Insights: Your Association’s team works to stay on top of developments that affect the industry. We monitor news, legislation, and government agencies every day, keeping members informed of the highlights.

In Addison, TX, we’ll feature keynote speeches from industry leaders who are experts in sales strategies, workforce development, and the Farm Bill/Election update. Additionally, we have expanded our networking opportunities to include evening receptions, interactive sponsor booths, and technology showcases.

4) Strategic Focus: Stepping away from daily operations allows you to take a broader view and think strategically. After witnessing the demands of your daily routine, we know how productive it can be to take a break. You’ll return to work with a refreshed, renewed focus.

5) Efficiency: Instead of scheduling meetings across the country, interpreting complex federal regulations, or researching standards and international markets on your own, join us in Addison. In just a few days, you’ll make significant progress on all these fronts, thanks to the concentrated expertise and networking opportunities available at the convention.

Join us in Addison to pitch your products, expand into new markets, form new partnerships, learn, and discover your next brilliant idea.

This major gathering, which brings together member companies from the ¹û¶³´«Ã½ and the Equipment Marketing and Distribution Association (EMDA), has been a tradition for over 70 years. Each Association has its own program and schedule, but comes together for several shared events. Every session, function, reception, and refreshment break is a valuable opportunity to network with industry peers. In previous years, more than 400 executives have attended to conduct business, learn, and enjoy themselves.

Whether you’re seeking innovative strategies, advanced education, networking opportunities, or insights into trends affecting your company’s future, this convention is a must-attend event for every farm equipment manufacturing professional. It’s your chance to meet dozens of distributors from across the U.S. and beyond, all in one location.
