2024 LMC EXPO prepares dealers, suppliers for 2025 success

The 2024 EXPO brought together LMC Dealers and supplier partners from across the country for a productive, strategy-focused event in Philadelphia. The two-day gathering enabled participants to network, gain insights from industry experts, and collaborate on actionable strategies for 2025. 

LMC Dealers took full advantage of the opportunity to network with peers, suppliers, and LMC staff, building valuable connections that will elevate their partnerships in the year ahead. Conversations with supplier partners provided dealers with timely market intelligence, while discussions with LMC’s team helped them understand emerging trends and the resources available to guide their business strategies in 2025. By sharing insights on product pricing, availability, and industry shifts, dealers gained a clearer view of the market landscape, equipping them to make informed purchasing decisions and optimize their operations for the coming year. 

By facilitating contract negotiations, securing suppler commitments, and providing valuable market insights, LMC’s President and CEO, Paul Ryan shared these thoughts on the event: “The LMC Expo was an outstanding success. Our dealers and suppliers truly enjoyed some great networking along with support from our team to plan for 2025.”
