MRAA Adds New Benefit for Partner Members

The Marine Retailers Association of the Americas has added a new benefit for Partner, Premier Partner and Platinum Partner members of the association.

Those Partner Members that exhibit at the Marine Dealer Conference & Expo will now receive complimentary MDCE registrations for their team members on top of the two that are included with any standard booth order.

Standard MRAA Partner members will receive one additional free conference registration (a $499 value); MRAA Premier Partner members will receive one and a half additional free conference registrations (a $748.50 value); and MRAA Platinum Partner members will receive two additional free conference registrations (a $998 value).

MRAA elected to add this new benefit as a special thank you to those manufacturers and suppliers that have demonstrated tremendous commitment to the dealer community.

“MDCE is the place for industry-leading dealers, manufacturers and suppliers to come together to learn, strengthen existing relationships, and explore new partnerships,” says Liz Walz, MRAA director of education. “This new MRAA member-only benefit is designed to show our gratitude to those manufacturers and suppliers that are supporting retailers’ growth and improvement at the highest levels. We want to help them take full advantage of the opportunities MDCE represents.”

This exculsive MRAA benefit will be provided to members as part of their MDCE Exhibit Package. Please contact Kathy Johnson at 480-988-3658 or kathy.johnson@boatingindustry.com with questions regarding exhibitor registrations, or for general information about exhibiting at MDCE.
