The RV Component Expo, set to take place October 14–16 at the Michiana Event Center in Shipshewana, Indiana, aims to provide a focused business platform for component manufacturers to connect directly with RV and marine original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Positioned near one of the highest concentrations of RV production in North America, the event will bring together industry suppliers and purchasing decision-makers.
“This isn’t a consumer show complicated with flashy showroom displays. We’re a business-driven event where OEM engineers, product developers, sourcing leads, and decision-makers come ready to buy, not browse,” the event’s promotional material states.
Exhibitors will include manufacturers of RVIA-compliant components, metal fabrications, electrical and HVAC systems, and cabinetry.
Exhibitor setup will begin October 13, followed by the show’s main hours from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. daily. Tear-down will take place October 17. All participants will receive an exhibitor packet that includes a show map and credentials for up to three company representatives.
“In an industry filled with crowded, dealer-focused RV trade shows and one-size-fits-all expos, the RV Component Exposition stands out by staying focused on what matters most: The connection between the innovation of your product and the suppliers who can deliver on your ideas,” the organizers state.
The event also promises early access to innovations in space-saving design, modular systems, and next-generation mobile technologies. Attendees can expect to see live demonstrations and product walkthroughs tailored to the specific needs of OEM buyers.
“Whether you’re launching a new floor plan or improving a current model, this is the environment where quality meets opportunity. The RV Component Exposition cuts through the noise to deliver what both suppliers and OEMs need most,” the expo indicates.
Buyers and engineers representing RV manufacturers, marine craft builders, and specialty vehicle firms are expected to attend. The event serves a wide spectrum of professionals involved in product development, from early-stage design to materials sourcing.
